Buchanan Rides Alone 1958

★★★

Why is this movie called Buchanan Rides Alone? Buchanan is barely on horseback the entire movie, and he is practically never alone for a minute at the time. Still and all, not too bad – though probably the weakest link in the chain of Boetticher/Scott-collaborations.

Stian Andreassen rated MASH ★★½

MASH 1970

★★½

I think a couple of lines from Bob Dylan’s «Quinn the Eskimo (Mighty Quinn)» might sum up how I feel about this movie:

I like to do just like the rest, I like my sugar sweet,
But guarding fumes and making haste,
It ain't my cup of meat

I like my sugar sweet. I like my jokes to be funny. I like my movies to have (something resembling) a plot. This movie wasn't my cup of meat.
