This week is a good one for westerns, including:
THE SEARCHERS (1956) Sunday 21 August 1.50-3.45pm BBC 2
We reviewed this masterpiece extensively during the lockdown, but if you haven’t seen it . . . .
NO NAME ON THE BULLET (1959) Monday 22 August 12.35-2.15pm 5 Action (Channel 33)
A change of pace for Audie Murphy in what is probably (except for Destry) his best starring role at Universal-International. He is the hired killer in town (but who is to be the victim?) and sci-fi specialist Jack Arnold racks up the tension.
RELENTLESS (1948) Wednesday 24 August 3.05-4.55pm Talking Pictures (Channel 82)
TP continues with its season, very well-curated, of horse operas. This is a relatively rare offering: Robert Young is the cowboy on the run and the nice Technicolor is a bonus.
