Apache Ambush



Good Old Bill Williams
Long on my wanted list, this Sony Choice Collection from Columbia does not let me down. An excellent wide screen B/W print means good value (but it is a bit expensive), and the plot about a Presidential ordered Cattle Drive from South to North moves at a frantic pace as directed by the reliable Fred F. Sears. The cast is a good "Western" one - Led by Williams, with Ray Teal, Don Harvey, Richard Jaeckel in good roles with a support cast of (unbilled) Clay Moore, George Keymas, Chris Alcaide, Lane Chandler, and.. Tex Ritter in a "blink and you will miss him" thankless role, and Ray Corrigan, and I am ashamed to say..I still don't know what part he played!!. My one slight quarrel is that you must forget/overlook the fact that most, tho not all, of the action scenes are stock footage from... Ah that's the question...Is it Jon Hall's "Kit Carson"? If anyone knows... I loved this good old unpretentious "B" Western. I just can't quite manage 5 stars, but very nearly. Western lovers - you...

I liked the movie and the preformance of the actors and would recommend it to western fans for good entertainment.
