Wonderful films but a poor transfer December 23, 2008
0 out of 2 found this review helpful
This boxed-set is long overdue, Boetticher/Randolph Scott westerns being one of the most sought after films by movie buffs all over the world. This set is well conceived with lots of interseting bonuses. But the quality of the transfer is not up to the usual level for these kinds of releases. Anyway, nobody could go without!
Just great! December 16, 2008

For years I've been waiting for Boetticher's films on DVD. It was worth it. The Budd Boetticher Box Set is just great.

I will not review these films -- except to indicate that "Ride Lonesome" is a particularly fine one -- but want to warn buyers that the packaging (courtesy the ever adorable Sony Corporation) may arrive in bad shape. My NEW copy was shrink-wrapped, but inside one of the discs was piled on top of another because one of the little tabs had broken off. Clearly, this was noticed by the packager in the factory -- but shipped anyway. My choice to either return and wait for another copy or accept as OK damaged merchandise. Other Sony-related complaints: the unreadably small (and, to add to the problem, blue on black) type on the back cover. And -- hey -- Randolph Scott is in all these films -- perverse, isn't it, considering that most American DVD boxsets are built around stars (when it makes more sense to build them around directors) that this set is named after one of the more obscure Hollywood auteurs. Why isn't it "the Budd Boetticher - Randolph Scott Collection"? Far be it from me, though, to elucidate the workings of the corporate mind.
Director Budd Boetticher has Western star Randolph Scott riding tall in THE TALL T through to COMANCHE STATION. December 1, 2008
3 out of 5 found this review helpful
In the mid 1950's Director Budd Boetticher came together with ageing star Randolph Scott to make a remarkable group of B-Westerns under the banner of RANOWN Productions, the name was made up from the names of Randolph Scott and producer Harry Joe Brown. The first of these was SEVEN MEN FROM NOW (1956) a Batjac (John Wayne) Production. This film was painstakingly restored and released as a Special Collector's Edition in 2005.
This five-film Budd Boetticher Collection in production order is: THE TALL T (1957) DECISION AT SUNDOWN (1957) BUCHANHAN RIDES ALONE (1958) RIDE LONESOME (1959) and COMANCHE STATION (1960) Of this group the first and last two films stand out above the rest not least because they all have a cracking script by Burt Kennedy as did the aforementioned SEVEN MEN FROM NOW. These four films have gained a cult following over the years and can be regarded as mini-masterpieces!
Boetticher's characters in these films are not the usual B-Western hero / villains stereotypes, in most cases his heroes are flawed and the villains not all bad which is helped by a strong cast of supporting actors including the likes of Richard Boone, John Carroll, Craig Stevens, James Coburn and Claude Akins. Of the leading ladies Karen Steele (Mrs Budd Boetticher) appeared in two of the above Westerns others included Valerie French, Maureen O'Sullivan and Nancy Gates.
Randolph Scott is the obsessive stoic hero in these little seventy-odd minute dramas. On the release of the marvellous COMANCHE STATION in early 1960, Scott decided to rest on his laurels and retire. He was persuaded two years later to climb back in the saddle once more for Sam Pekinpah's wonderful RIDE THE HIGH COUNTRY (1962) along with fellow veteran westerner Joel McCrea.
All five films here from Sony Pictures and the Film Foundation have been digitally re-mastered and special features include a Budd Boetticher Documentary, The original theatrical released trailers and commentaries by Taylor Hackford, Martin Scorsese and last but not least Clint Eastwood. This Budd Boetticher Collection is a must have for any serious Western fan and is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
Not your everyday Westerns December 1, 2008
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
This box set of is a must for lovers of Westerns and for all film buffs. Randolp Scott stars in and co-produces these movies. Scott made scores of B Westerns but it wasn't until he hooked up with director Budd Boetticher that he created a handful of the greatest Westerns ever made. With a B picture budget and an average shooting schedule of two weeks Beotticher transcended these limitations to create great entertainment and movie art. His characters, especially his bad guys, are complex and often likeable, Scott is gritty and determined - usually bent of revenge, and the landscapes which Boetticher's camera adores are breathtaking.
