Austin Trunick Returns - Cannon Film Guide Vol 2

With a new month comes a new theme. This month is "She's Dietrich-iest" month where we will be looking at four films with Marlene Dietrich in them. First off is a western set in Alaska during the 1900 gold rush. We discuss the good, the bad, and the ugly of the film. We talk about how this film definitely seemed to influence a western comedy thirty years later and that epic fist-to-cuff brawl.
