     The Rare Breed
1966  NR  WESTERN  1h 37min
CAST— James Stewart, Maureen O’Hara, Brian Keith, Juliet Mills, Don Galloway
MUSIC— Johnny Williams  DIRECTOR— Andrew V. McLaglen

     Here lies a Western with a heart. James Stewart plays an experienced cattle man who agrees to guide an English Hereford bull from point A to point B. But the catch is that its former pampering owners, two proper British ladies, are along for the journey. The bull is shown contempt and compassion throughout their trek as the humans learn to respect one another. Simply a by-the-books drama with more gush than gun play. An over the top performance by Brian Keith is simply irritating. Take it or leave it.
OUR RATING— **
