Movies starring Dorothy Malone

The Nevadan (1950)

81 mins     Western      

"The Nevadan" is one of those westerns where you get a feeling that the writer had a couple of good ideas up their sleeves but little else. And it means that whilst certain things in this western entertain the over all feelin...

Law and Order (1953)

80 mins     Western      

Yes "Law and Order" is that straight forwards, a former lawman seeking a peaceful retirement, turning down work as a lawman finding there is no escape from the enemies he has made and for the sake of those he cares for has to...

Young at Heart (1954)

113 mins     Drama, Musical, Romance      

It would be fair to say that a lot of Doris Day movies work to a formula and as such a typical Doris Day movie has an almost painted by numbers feel to it. One Doris Day movie which doesn't, which feels quite original is "You...

The Lone Gun (1954)

76 mins     Western      

So here we are again with another 1950s western which only ever melts into the hug mixing pot of forgettable westerns from the era when they were popular. Technically there is nothing wrong with "The Lone Gun" as it ticks the...

Tall Man Riding (1955)

83 mins     Western      

During the 50s Randolph Scott made a lot of westerns, the trouble is that many of them are rather ordinary, play book movies where familiar elements from other westerns are combined but with little flare. One of these rather ...

Battle Cry (1955)

149 mins     Drama, Romance, War      

I can dream up the perfect pitch for when "Battle Cry" was originally released: "Guys you wanna take your girl to the flicks for a date but want to watch a war movie then come see Battle Cry as it has war for you and romance ...

The Fast and the Furious (1955)

73 mins     Crime, Drama, Mystery      

There is a scene in "The Fast and the Furious" where Dorothy Malone seems to be searching for her words and it made me think that either this movie was still being written when it went in to production or that it was a movie ...

At Gunpoint (1955)

81 mins     Western      

Movie Review - At Gunpoint (1955) Fred MacMurray stars as Jack, an accidental hero when he shot an outlaw but now faces the threat of the rest of the outlaw gang returning to town to get revenge...

Tension at Table Rock (1956)

93 mins     Western      

"Tension at Table Rock" is quite an intriguing western because it combines a variety of western standards. The introduction gives us the gunman who wants to move on from his past and go straight, this leads into a bit of "Sha...

Written on the Wind (1956)

99 mins     Drama, Romance      

Director Douglas Sirk is held in high esteem as the king of the melodramas and there is a good reason why, he can take something which is completely obvious and turn it into something so much more. It is most certainly the ca...

The Tarnished Angels (1957)

91 mins     Drama, Romance      

For me "The Tarnished Angels" is a bit of a curiosity because whilst technically a Douglas Sirk melodrama it certainly doesn't have the same feeling as his other better known movies. That vibrant use of colour, the clever use...

Quantez (1957)

80 mins     Western      

On first glance "Quantez" doesn't appear to be special, a group of bank robbers and a girlfriend end up in a ghost town holed up over night because their horses are dead beat. There is the posse which is on their tail and the...

Warlock (1959)

122 mins     Western      

A small town in trouble from some local bandits are forced to take matters into their own hands by hiring a vigilante to sort out the trouble. That on its own is not the most original of stories think about "Seven Samurai", "...

The Last Sunset (1961)

112 mins     Western      

Theoretically "The Last Sunset" should be a very good movie, it stars Kirk Douglas, Rock Hudson and Dorothy Malone, it is directed by Robert Aldrich who would later on give us "The Dirty Dozen" and Dalton Trumbo whose writing...

The Day Time Ended (1979)

79 mins     Sci-Fi      

I will give you 2 reasons why you might want to watch "The Day Time Ended" and the first is the cast. This 70s sci-fi movie features Jim Davis who many will remember from Dallas, the attractive Dorothy Malone as well as Chris...
