A Time for Dying

Reviews

CinemaSerf
This is quite an odd Western, this one - like many made in the late 1960s, it is anticipating the arrival of the railroad and, ultimately, it's own demise... This one is only really notable as the last appearance for Audie Murphy - and appearance is the word - probably no more than 3 minutes of screen time as the legendary Jesse James. The rest of the film really belongs to Victor Jury as the curmudgeonly - and quite ruthless - "Judge Roy Bean" who rules his town with a rod of iron, tempered only by his ability to drink copiously and his fascination with Lily Langtree. Richard Lapp is our rather naive, unassuming hero who has some skill with a gun that he is, thus far, reluctant to use until he is finally provoked... It actually looks quite good, but the story is all rather weak, I found - Lapp and his co-star Anne Randall ("Nellie Winters") are just too nice, their love story too frat-like and many of the action scenes looked more like rodeo staging than anything more authentic.
