Border River (1954)


Universal-International
Directed by George Sherman
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Encore)

Joel McCrea is a southern Rebel in Mexico with a stolen stash of gold seeking to buy arms and ammunition for the cause back home. He makes a deal with a Mexican warlord, but can they trust each other? Everyone is after McCrea's gold, while McCrea is after the lovely Yvonne De Carlo. She goes through a luxurious wardrobe and I don't think she ever looked better than in this movie. Otherwise, McCrea does nothing to change my opinion that he is one of the most boring American western icons.
