Review of Jubal

Jubal (1956)
7/10
Two Words: Valerie French
15 August 2007
Valerie French as "Mae" is smokin' hot in this film, and a good thing she is. You see, the plot pivots on whether you believe there is a strong temptation for Ford or any other red-blooded male who comes in contact with her. She's a total sexpot and she really works it well on screen. I wonder why she didn't become a bigger star?

Earnest Borgnine does a great job with Shep, making him a very likable character, not forced or overacted.

Good, solid film with a unique breakdown of Ford's character when he talks to Felicia Farr's "Naomi" about his relationship with his mother. Rod Steiger is outstanding as usual.
