Editorial Reviews

Classic MGM 1938 release starring Gary Cooper and Merle Oberon. Sparks fly when a presidential candidate's blue-blooded daughter (Oberon) falls in love with a rough and tumble cowboy, a star on the rodeo circuit (Cooper) but not an acceptable match for her (or so her father thinks). H.C. Potter directed this spirited battle-of-the-sexes comedy. A fun, and entertaining film with a fine cast headed by the likeable, easy-going Cooper, who is so convincing in the cowboy role. Oberon is beautiful as the spoiled rich girl. The Classic black & white Original Theatrical Trailer is included. A must-see for any Coop fan.

5.0 out of 5 stars Remembering this movie after all these years., August 13, 2003

This review is from: Cowboy & The Lady [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I saw this movie as a young teenager, when black and white movies dominated weekends and rainy days! This was a romance that helped set the stage for all I find good in a romance: innocence, humor, drama, passion (the boat scene when he knew he had to marry her that night because of his passion for her), and the down home sweetness and good moral lessons shared, and a happy ending! A hunky leading man and a beautiful woman needing the love of a good man! Romance doesn't get any better than this. Great for the whole family!

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful, and senuous comedy......sweet and tender, January 25, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Cowboy & The Lady [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This movie touched me so deeply.......the story line is much the same as today's romantic comedies, but without the graphic language and details. When Gary Cooper's character tells Merle Oberon's character..."When a man feels this way about a woman, it's time to get married".....there is no doubt what that means....and as the camera fades to the porthole...it left me sighing........

4.0 out of 5 stars One of my favorites!, April 21, 2001

This review is from: Cowboy & The Lady [VHS] (VHS Tape)

It's not just the timeless story line here that I love, it's all the supporting cast too. Besides Cooper and Oberon, Walter Brennan again captures my heart as one of the finest. The scene in the unfinished house with the cowboys on their haunches "playing house" with Cooper is great. And the one on the boat to Galveston sums it all up. Watch this one close boys, it's what every woman wants!
