gary cooper delivers and with a formidable supporting cast and an excellent performance which strike a cord with audience who have see it way back when . victor fleming add life and mobility to the camera that many director be struggle to find through the cramped constraint of the early talk picture . fleming know that disc record wasn not go to make it in the movie for much long and decide to use the improved western electric sound on film system . $ 425 and 000 later and it prove a decision he be glad he have make . mary brian be gorgeous a the love but lonely heroine from vermont and strand and alone in a world so wide open and unpredictable that coop presence ( after much deliberation ) prove warm and protective . richard arlen and who be bill way above coop in wing ( 1927 ) make a fine support character in the role of steve and a cocky cattle rustler thirst for adventure in all the wrong place and much different from david armstrong and the character he portray in wing . this prove his ability to adapt to different role and which be to me and a film maker myself and one of the most important quality an actor can possess . such be the case of walter huston and who doesn not even look or sound like walter huston here . of all the actor in the picture and i think his performance be probably the best while his make up and his voice and his devilish smile make him a formidable adversary for our man coop . this picture deserve a dvd release for more reason than i care to list and if only to lend itself to a new generation of an audience . if you happen to find it in any format and i hope you shall agree with me on at least give it a dvd release .
