Rosalind Russell tops this week---


FIRST WATCHES:

Hide-Out (1934) Robert Montgomery, Maureen O'Sullivan, Edward Arnold, Elizabeth Patterson.  Gangster on the run is reformed by country girl and her family.   7/10  http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0025251/combined

Winchester73 (1950) James Stewart, Shelley Winters, Dan Dailey, Stephen McNally.   Western I thought for years I had seen, but dicovered I had it mixed up with another Stewart western.  Manhunt theme.  Interesting because of the future stars in minor roles, like Tony Curtis as an infantry soldier and Rock Hudson as an Indian!.  7/10     http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0043137/combined
