Universal International Westerns 1947 1963 Complete Filmography

From 1947 through 1963, the unified studios of Universal and International devised largely highly agreeably diverting westerns that ranged from classics like Winchester ’73 to forgettable films better left unmade. Entries on the 114 Universal-International westerns of the amount of time are assembled here. While other films may have contained western elements, only films that veritably fit the genre are included. Films are arranged alphabetically by title, and each entry includes release date, substitute title, cast, credits, songs, emplacement of filming, source if the film was an adaptation, running time, plot synopsis, commentary from the author and from the actors and directors, and representative excerpts from contemporary reviews. Also included are tag lines used in the original advertizing for each film. An introduction to the book provides details on the Universal-International merger and a history of the studios’ productions.
