Watched a 1959 Western film called "Ride Lonesome" which starred Randolph Scott yesterday as the Radio Times had given it a high rating. It's a cult film which does have its fans but I didn't think much of it. At least it was only 73 minutes long. Strange ending. Not unusual for westerns to end with the lead riding off alone into the distance but in this film, he's just standing alone watching a dead tree which he has set alight. Sometimes one wonders what happened to a character after the film ends. With this one there's no sign of any future. He's probably still standing there even after all these years.
On a trivia point, it was the film debut of James Coburn.
