The Good Bad-Man

6/6/2022

Douglas Fairbanks is "Passin' Through" - a dangerous gunslinger with a heart of gold. When he alights upon the young Bessie Love, who lives with her paralysed father, he takes a bit of a shine to her and helps fend off the unwanted attentions of local kingpin "the Wolf" (Sam de Grasse) whilst helping out some local kids with problems of their own. This isn't anyone's finest work - more procedural with little action. What there is, is almost exhibition stuff akin the sights you might see at a travelling rodeo. It's an easy watch, however , well produced - just nothing special.
