I got to meet Andre DeToth, director of #CrimeWave, when he came to speak at my college film school a zillion years ago. He was quite a character, eye patch and all. #TCMParty #SUTS

Ramrod (1947), Dir. Andre DeToth, a noire tinged western you want, then you shall have it.
A woman must navigate the rough old West. Torn between love, revenge, and survival, she faces choices when a rancher and a gunman enter her life. Gripping western, standout performances by Lake and Foster. 🎞️

Wait, I could be seeing Marie Windsor in 3-D?
![The opening of the Wikipedia entry for the film The Bounty Hunter:
The Bounty Hunter is a 1954 American western film directed by Andre DeToth and starring Randolph Scott, Marie Windsor and Dolores Dorn.
It was the last of six Randolph Scott westerns with DeToth and the first film to feature a bounty
hunter as its hero. It was released by Warner Bros.
It was filmed in 3-D but released in standard format, though a 3-D print exists in the Warner archives. Stock footage from the 1952 film Carson
City is used at the beginning of the film. (1]
Portions of the film were shot on location in California at Red Rock Canyon and the Mojave Desert. (21](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:lhxkgqcfz7fdtslhnhwkc3f3/bafkreif627qpttqerzsvzxwky7udgv4iwtksj3h63mkhw6t3dmz43onrlq)

Watching an old Andre DeToth/Randolph Scott Western when all of a sudden Ernest Borgnine pops up. Automatic extra star to my eventual rating.

Although an oldie, it's first class, with John Lithgow introducing the work, and Richard Widmark narrating it. So cool to hear and see directors like Edward Dymtryk, Joseph H Lewis and Andre DeToth talk about their work. Highly recommend. It's on YouTube!
