Movie Reviews"Robert Taylor Series ... Many Rivers to Cross (1955) ... MG J. Lovins | Missouri-USA | 09/23/2008 (5 out of 5 stars) "MGM presents "MANY RIVERS TO CROSS" (23 February 1955) (95 mins/Color) (Dolby digitally remastered) -- Our story line and plot, Bushrod Gentry (Robert Taylor) is the freelance fur trapper who is passing through --- On his way he is rescued by Mary Stuart Cherne (Eleanor Parker) --- Following this, the battle of the sexes begins --- It is frontier wits versus feminine charm, and guile --- Victor McLaughlin is himself (but that's just fine by me), James Arness plays a mountain man and a young Alan Hale Jr. (before Gilligan's Island) combine with the perennially juvenile antics of Russ Tamblyn to provide and hour and a half plus of escapist entertainment and downright good old fashioned laughter --- The final scene of Parker moaning over Taylor to attract the Indians to the scene and kill them, very funny and neatly done, easily worth the price of the ticket, or what must have been for those that saw it in the theater. Under the production staff of: Roy Rowland - Director Jack Cummings - Producer Harry Brown - Screenwriter Steve Frazee - Screen Story Guy Troper - Screenwriter John F.

Sandak, Mary's Indian Companion Abel Fernandez ... Slangoh Morris Ankrum ... Mr. Emmett - Surly Innkeeper & J.P Al Ferguson ... Bit Role Darryl Hickman ... Miles Henderson Hank Patterson ... Second Innkeeper Hats off and thanks to Les Adams (collector/guideslines for character identification), Chuck Anderson (Webmaster: The Old Corral/B-Westerns.Com), Boyd Magers (Western Clippings), Bobby J. Copeland (author of "Trail Talk"), Rhonda Lemons (Empire Publishing Inc) and Bob Nareau (author of "The Real Bob Steele") as they have rekindled my interest once again for B-Westerns and Serials --- If you're into the memories of B-Westerns with high drama, this is the one you've been anxiously waiting for --- please stand up and take a bow Western Classics --- all my heroes have been cowboys! Total Time: 95 mins on DVD ~ Warner Home Video ~ (8/26/2008)" Many Rivers to Cross J. Highbaugh | KY USA | 10/05/2008 (4 out of 5 stars) "A mixture of comedy and western action set in Kentucky during the l8th century. Bushrod Gentry, played by Robert Taylor, is excellent in fighting any opponent be it Indians or other foe. But when Eleanor Powell comes along with marriage on her mind, she breaks down all his defenses. Although he does put up a mighty fight. Hilarious and very entertaining." Comedy western L. Petree | 11/16/2008 (4 out of 5 stars) "Really enjoyed this movie. Good plot development and acting. Had some serious moments too. It all works well together. The fight with Indian in the cave is hilarious slapstick."
