the naked spur (1953)

(Anthology Film Archives, 9 Sept 2015). Anthology's Robert Ryan retro pays off bigtime. Robert Ryan here is giddy and physical. Watch him get dragged over a pile of dirt in a cave. Ralph Meeker plays an ex-soldier still wearing a uniform with cool stripes down the pants. Ralph Meeker is great at relaxing. Watch him just lie back on the ground while Jimmy Stewart shoots at Ryan.
