Movies directed by Andre De Toth

Dark Waters (1944)

90 mins     Drama, Mystery      

I had great hopes for "Dark Waters" because it is a relatively early insanity movie, a sub genre which I enjoy but often find myself disappointed by because of the lack of originality. I was hoping coming early on there would...

None Shall Escape (1944)

85 mins     Drama, War      

"None Shall Escape" is one of those movies which you will probably only watch once because it is a grim tale but it is such a well made movie that if it wasn't so grim you would watch it again and again. And that well made bi...

Ramrod (1947)

95 mins     Western      

I nearly didn't bother with "Ramrod" because in a review I browsed before watching the writer said it was film noir more than western. Now the over use of the term "film noir" is something which riles me especially when someo...

Man in the Saddle (1951)

87 mins     Western      

Randolph Scott made over 100 movies in his time and I wouldn't be surprised if half of them were westerns. Unfortunately unlike western icon John Wayne when it came to Scott's westerns he always ended up playing the same sort...

Springfield Rifle (1952)

93 mins     War, Western      

I wouldn't say that "Springfield Rifle" is the best 50s western I have ever watched, I won't way that it wowed me with one great action scene after another, although it occasionally gets close and I won't say that the perform...

Carson City (1952)

87 mins     Western      

Randolph Scott in a cowboy hat, yes we have another 50s western featuring the matinee idol. And to be blunt "Carson City" is like many of Scott's 50s westerns, he's the good guy, when he gets involved in a brawl he slugs it o...

Last of the Comanches (1953)

85 mins     Western      

A mixed bag of civilians and cavalry men find themselves pinned down in the middle of nowhere by Indians, weapons, food and water is sparse and with each day which passed their number decreases after each wave of attack. That...

Thunder Over the Plains (1953)

82 mins     Western      

With "Thunder Over the Plains" being a Randolph Scott western I had certain expectations and to be honest they weren't exactly high as Scott over the years starred in a fair few ordinary oaters. So I am pleasantly surprised t...

The Stranger Wore a Gun (1953)

83 mins     Western      

If you are looking for a western as a basis for judging all other westerns by then "The Stranger Wore a Gun" could be just that movie as it is as middle of the western road as you can get. There is nothing wrong with it but t...

The Bounty Hunter (1954)

79 mins     Western      

You have to give Randolph Scott a lot of credit because he starred in a lot of what can only be called stereotypical, low budget 50s westerns, the sort that you can guess what will happen before the movie even starts. Yet Sco...

The Indian Fighter (1955)

88 mins     Western      

There is a scene in "The Indian Fighter" where having taken a shine to Onahti Johnny forces himself on her to steal a kiss. Now not only would that scene cause some unrest if it was put in a movie these days but I remember ot...
