    Stagecoach

    Hold it! This episode of Film Frontier is all about one of the greatest films, not to mention Westerns, of all time: Stagecoach from 1939. It's the film that brought John Ford and John Wayne together at last. We talk about these two legends, the impact of the film on directors like Kurosawa and Spielberg, and the immense contributions of stunt pioneer Yakima Canutt.

    One-Eyed Jacks

    We're excited to talk about Marlon Brando's one and only directorial effort, the 1961 western One-Eyed Jacks, starring Brando, Karl Malden, Pina Pellicer, Katy Jurado, Ben Johnson, and Slim Pickens. A notorious production behind the scenes, we delve into its connections to Rod Serling, Sam Peckinpah, Stanley Kubrick, and how it may be the bridge between the Traditional Western and the Spaghetti Western.  If you want to check out this film, we recommend the Criterion Collection (US) / Arrow Video (UK) release, a 4K restoration by Universal Pictures and The Film Foundation, supervised by Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg. And if you'd like to learn even more, be sure to check out Toby Roan's book A Million Feet of Film: The Making of One-Eyed Jacks.

    The Hired Hand

    Just how does counterculture icon Peter Fonda follow up his groundbreaking classic, Easy Rider? By making his feature directorial debut with an artsy, feminist Western of course! On this Film Frontier, we discuss 1971's The Hired Hand starring Fonda and the fantastic Warren Oates and Verna Bloom. Listen in for connections to the New Hollywood film movement, Henry and Jane Fonda, and more! Thanks for listening and please be sure to rate, subscribe, and check out our other episodes.

    Tombstone Rashomon and Alex Cox

    On this episode we discuss Tombstone Rashomon, the newest release from Alex Cox (Repo Man, Sid & Nancy). The film is another look at the Gunfight at the OK Corral (which we've covered here before), but this time filtered through Kurosawa's Rashomon. We also got to interview the insightful director, but please pardon the audio quality. Thanks for listening and please be sure to rate and subscribe for future episodes!
