5.0 out of 5 stars Lady takes a chance and so should you, March 13, 2007

It is good to get two good films in a double feature like this. "Dark Command" has long time been a favorite of mine. Ayoung John Wayne play the part of an illiterate cowboy who becomes sheriff in Kansas just before the star of the Civil War. He must match wits with the wily villian played well by Walter Pidgeon. Throw in a cast that includes Claire Trevor, Gabby Hayes and Roy Rogers and you have great fun entertainment. "A Lady Takes a Chance" is more of a romantic comedy. Wayne is the rodeo star and Jean Arthur is the woman who falls for him. Look for Phil Silvers with a fine comedic bit.

Standard John Wayne fare, good guy comes along and rights the wrongs. Dark Command was a little edgy for the time it was made, at least I think so.

Bottom line: Great old films by the Duke!
If you want HD and excellent color, then you are looking in the wrong place.
However, If you want great movies from back in the old days where it took good acting and good scripting to make great movies instead of sex and violence, you will love these!
