Review of Lawman

Lawman (1971)
7/10
Great Classic Western
9 August 2006
If you like Westerns, this is one of the best, only because of the great actors, especially, Burt Lancaster. Lancaster,(Bannock Jered),"Tough Guys",'86, plays a Marshall out to hunt down several men who killed an older man in his hometown. Robert Duvall,(Vernon Adam),The Detective",'68, is one of the men he is looking for and is associated with Lee J. Cobb,(Vincent Bronson),"Captain from Castile",'47, who runs a ranch and most of these men Bannock is looking for work for Vincent. Robert Ryan,(Marshall Cotton),"The Love Machine",'71, is also the local Sheriff and has become soft as a lawman, because Vincent Bronson has bought him off to see his ways. There is a great deal of realism through out the entire picture and even a small amount of love making and quick romance. Oh, I forgot to mention the fact that Bannock Jered played on a wooden FLUTE, but it really sounded like an antique HAYNES FLUTE being played ! WOW
