Beautiful black stallion
Universal Pictures splurged a little with this one going on location and using
color for this entertaining B western populated with a cast of familiar western
faces for Red Canyon. The film is based on a Zane Grey novel about a cowboy
trying to catch a beautiful black stallion and leader of a pack of wild horses.
The horse can fly and he might make a good race horse Howard Duff reasons.
Might even impress Ann Blyth the daughter of the local Ponderosa owner
George Brent.
What Ann and George don't know about Duff is that he's also the son of a local outlaw leader John McIntire. Many years back McIntire and his gang killed Ann's mother during a gunfight.
The plot goes about as you would expect it to go but the western vistas in Kanab, Utah are a beautiful sight. Add to the folks already mentioned people like Jane Darwell, Edgar Buchanan, Chill Wills, and Denver Pyle all who are most familiar western faces and in roles you would expect them to be in and it adds up to nice western entertainment.
No new ground broken in Red Canyon, but well cultivated old ground indeed.
