High quality western
Sam Fuller actually made a good number of westerns in his early career, and thanks to DVD we are finally able to see these at home just in these past few years. I can’t say how long I was looking for “Baron of Arizona.” Pleased to say that this one is just as ambitious and fulfilling as the other two that I’ve seen, “Baron” and “I Shot Jesse James.” Barbara Stanwyck is welcome in ANY western film as far as I’m concerned, and Barry Sullivan’s “long walk” is the most stylish you’ll ever see. Dean Jagger provides his usual characterization of a conflicted and compromised noble man.

Fuller centers the film around a few key scenes, specific confrontations that define the rest of the action surrounding them. His sense of style in terms of the characters and their interactions with their surroundings is impressive. For instance the scene with the man who’s supposed to trick Griff into an ambush — we really get to know that character and sense his fear just in a short time. I love how he and his actors make use of accidents and physical limitations of the sets. For instance there’s a bit where Sullivan is running towards the action and a tumbleweed comes across his path, and he leaps across it in a really stylish way. In some circumstances that could have become a ruined take, but Fuller obviously has his actor so much into the spirit of the scene that he basically reacts in character. You can sense Fuller’s ability to focus his actors that way hanging over both the action and dialog scenes.

I’d have to see the film again to really say much about its theme or its subject, but it seems to be in the classic mold of westerns about the end of the “Old West.” Stanwyck and Sullivan represent different types of iconic western presence that will depart from the world forever with that ending.

The conclusion of the film is a bit underwhelming, but other than that I really have no complaints about this film. It’s fine western entertainment from the closing days of the western about the closing days of the west.

Woman With A Whip
Hard case Barbara Stanwyck is a powerful cattle baron with forty hired guns and a spoiled rotten, sleazy kid brother. Opposing her is freelance lawman Barry Sullivan and his two brothers, the youngest of which Sullivan is trying to steer away from the family business.

The word I see most used by film critics to describe the films of writer/producer/director Samuel Fuller is “muscular”. They’re right and Forty Guns is no exception.

Complex and noirish, with dreamy black and white photography, hard boiled dialog and a bit of sexual innuendo thrown in, Fuller takes pulp fiction and turns it into art, squeezing two-hours of story into a lean seventy-nine minutes.

Barry Sullivan was a criminally under-used character actor. Here, he really gets to show off his acting skills in probably his best role.
