"Ten Wanted Men" Movie Poster

Ten Wanted Men

Description:
Randolph Scott's movie-star reputation was redeemed late in the day by Budd Boetticher's remarkable "Ranown" films in the late '50s and Sam Peckinpah's sublime Ride the High Country, Scott's swan song, in 1962. Ten Wanted Men typifies the pictures his career needed redeeming from--formula oaters that are workmanlike at best and suitable for recommending only to confirmed fans of the genre.

Scott plays a well-to-do rancher who sends for his lawyer brother (Lester Matthews) to help civilize his corner of the Southwest. That's enough to tick off Scott's chief rival and former protégé, Richard Boone, who gets even more irritated when Scott's nephew charms the local señorita Boone has been wooing in his heavy-handed way. His reaction is to import a passel of gunslinging plug-uglies and start making life miserable for everybody.

Boone would prove a superb adversary to Scott in The Tall T two years later, but here he just flails. Scott's character is possibly the most irritatingly self-righteous he ever played, so he scarcely bothers to play it at all. Bruce Humberstone's lax direction leaves no doubt when a stunt double has stepped in for Scott, and if a gunshot happens to fill the frame with smoke, you can count on the air being clear as a bell in the next camera angle. The only mildly interesting thing to wonder about in Ten Wanted Men (apart from exactly which 10 the title refers to) is how elements of Billy the Kid and the Lincoln County War came to be grafted onto the otherwise nondescript plot. --Richard T. JamesonRandolph Scott rides tall in the saddle as a powerful cattle rancher in this action-packed western. Scott, who made a noteworthy contribution to this genre in the late 50's as a lean, mean cowboy, stars as John Stewart, an Arizona rancher determined to rule his vast empire with strong willed integrity. Stewart meets with opposition, however, from local landowner Wick Campbell (Richard Boone) who prefers the persuasive power of the pistol to the letter of the law. Suddenly Stewart is forced to defend himself and the woman he loves, Jocelyn Brando) against Campbell's renegades who are determined to ransack the town. Now Stewart must take a life-and-death stand in a rugged confrontation that pits one man of justice against the overwhelming odds of TEN WANTED MEN.
