“A” Movie Review from the Film Vault – Shane

SHANE (1953) (REVISITED)

For all you Clint Eastwood fans (and I’m one of them), once upon a time there was an actor by the name of Alan Ladd. His first real breakout role was as a hit man in a drama mystery called This Gun for Hire in 1942. He became a sensation and was a big star up to the late fifties before he died in 1964 from an apparent sleeping pill and alcohol overdose.
