Featured review
I SHOT BILLY THE KID
Is this movie a response to Sam Fuller's I SHOT JESSE JAMES, released one year earlier? I have the Fuller's film in my library but I don't remind it, so I won't compare the two films, speaking of the two most notorious Wild West myths, legends. Anyway, Sam Fuller, even a young Samuel Fuller, will give another directing different from William Berke's one. No problem. That said, this short B western is not lousy, as we could expect, better than the Ken Maynard's or Johnny Mc Brown stuff, or even Allan Lane, Roy Rogers.... There were dozens of films speaking of Billy The Kid and a very few of them emerge: LEFT HANDED GUN, PAT GARRET AND BILLY THE KID are the top of the basket for me. So don't despise this B western please. But we can get amused by a nearly forty years old Don Barry playing a twenty two years old Billy the Kid, this is ridiculous; the same with Robert Taylor, also playing the same character in David Miller's BILLY THE KID, Taylor who was thirty years old and looked far older for this role. The same crew: William Berke, Don Barry, Robert Lowery will also be together the same year for GUNFIRE, another western speaking this time of Frank James, another western legend.
