(1953) Ride, Vaquero!

WESTERN

Co-written and directed by John Farrow, starring Robert Taylor as Rio standing side by side with renown Mexican bandit Esqueda played by Anthony Quinn. Upon the arrival of King Cameron (Howard Keel) and his wife Cordelia Cameron (Ava Gardner) who were looking forward moving into their new home somewhere isolated and close to the border between Mexico and the U. S.. they would come to see it already burned down to the ground and pinning the blame on Esqueda and his bandits just because King wouldn't be used as an example to other settlers who'd want to do this too. Well made solid western which works like a great book. Great dialogue exchanges, with great revelations. And I also like the fact that this is one of few movies which the lead star, who is Robert Taylor doesn't go away with the leading lady who is Gardner.
