The Texas Dilemma
Oct 23, 2006
bkoganbing - imdb.com
The diplomatic and political machinations around the admission of Texas to the USA are incredibly complex and are touched on in this film. It would have taken a longer and better film to explain it all. I think MGM had plans... Full review
fun to watch but far from Gable's best

If you watch this movie anticipating a Western B-movie, you won't be disappointed. There's action and romance a-plenty. However, if you realize that this was an A-picture and you hold the film to a higher standard, then you will be disappointed.... Full review

I afraid even with the starpower involved in this one since there's not much they can do with a poor script. Convoluted plot about the annexation of Texas into the union, it involves the opposing forces of Gable and Broderick Crawford... Full review
History off, chemistry off, but what a map of Texas!

Clark Johnson - imdb.com
Hollywood treatment of Texas / USA history is not very well done here. Very difficult to identify with the characters or the actors. Chemistry was better between Gable and Gardner in their 1947 "The Hucksters". If you enjoy the "Texas is... Full review
