 Rating:  - Glenn Ford wound up tightThe late Glenn Ford who passed away last year, was a very under-rated actor who never got his due as his son Peter will profess. This psychological Western shows Ford at his best in one of his few villainous roles (the other being"3:10 to Yuma"). His buddy William Holden is also excellent as his best friend and the one who sees the chink in his armor as he slowly descends into madness though Ellen Drew is totally wasted as Ford's wife. It's competentedly directed by Henry Levin but unfortunately ... Read More Rating: - Colorado in the 1860`sGood yarn and film that deals with how war changes those that fight in them. Background is the War Between the States as it relates to the then Colorado Territory and its aftermath. A Colonel, who commands one of the three (story does not specify which) Colorado Cavalry Regiments active during the war, possibly the 3rd that operated whithin the territory and of Sand Creek note, returns home to be named Federal Territorial Judge. His personal emotional problems affect those arouhd him.

When Devereux's psyhotic behaviour force the town's people to take up arms against him , the former friend are pitted against each other in a brutal conflict with fatal consequences ...

Glenn Ford stars as the tightly wound Union colonel who, immediately after the war ends, returns home and is elected judge for his corner of Colorado. Ford's first official action is to appoint best friend William Holden a federal marshal. THE MAN FROM COLORADO begins a little before these happy ceremonies take place, though. The movie opens with Colonel Ford forming his men into line of battle against a small contingent of whipped confederates. ... Read More Rating: - Unconventional WesternHenry Levin's post-Civil War western, shot in Techincolor, features real-life best friends Glenn Ford and William Holden (both RIP) as former Union officers who find themselves on opposite sides after Owen Devereaux (Ford) becomes town judge, and who begins to abuse his power to punish anyone who opposes him. Del Stewart (Holden) is made town marshal but he sees that his friend is slipping more and more into insanity (which today would be referred to as Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder), brought on by his experiences ...
