Directed by Louis KingMy rating: 2 stars out of 4

(Encore Westerns)
Unexciting remake of Destry Rides Again. The self-conscious double entendre between Shelley Winters and Joel McCrea doesn't work, especially given that McCrae is supposed to be a non-violent, good-guy sheriff. In fact, none of the characters have any real bite, and without a strong villain a western falls apart. Some nice Technicolor location shooting at times, but most of it is on the Universal back lot.
