Vertigo, Rear Window,Harvey, Broken Arrow, The Glenn Miller Story, Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, Bend of the River, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance and Anatomy of a Murder all feature better performances from the great man.
Stewart is one of my personal favourite actors. |
His finest performance imho. Totally laid-back and still dominating the screen... which isn't an easy thing as Wayne and Marvin aren't exactly nose pickers either... Apart from that... Ransom "Ranse" Stoddard is one of the few credible chickenshit characters in cinema history. Maybe Ford's best film as well.
