Sam Peckinpah's light-hearted, rambunctious ode to the dying Wild West, with Jason Robards as a rascally prospector who transforms a desert water-hole into big business. Year: 1970 Director: Sam Peckinpah Starring: Jason Robards, Stella Stevens, David Warner
Reader Reviews
The Shopkeeper
An unusual and great Western--well worth owning
The Ballad of Cable Hogue may seem like a departure for Peckinpah, but that's only because his reputation in westerns was set by the more popular The Wild Bunch. This film shows a much more subtle side of Peckinpah and his view of the Old West. (Well, not quite the Old West. The story takes place in 1908.)
Jason Robards is perfect in this role. His portrayal of Hogue as a cantankerous character that gave up his youthful dreams years ago is engaging and compelling. This is a lament (ballad) about a dying lifestyle--a mythical time perhaps, but when it faded into history, it crushed people's dreams and aspirations for a new life just beyond civilization.
The Ballad of Cable Hogue is a well-executed film with great acting.
