The Twilight Zone: Nervous Man in a Four Dollar Room (1960) Season 2, Episode 3

Three strikes and I'm out!

[12 October 2020]

Way before the three strikes law. And the Deniro 'You talkin' to me?" was surely swiped from this episode of TZ.

Jubal (1956)

Beautiful Scenery and Wonderful Acting

[8/10 · 29 November 2004]

This dramatic western is just what the doctor ordered. As fresh today as it was in 1956 when I was 2! The scenery alone is so impressive that watching Glenn Ford is just icing on the cake. These titanic actors really nail it on this film. I imagine the 'behind the scenes' horseplay was probably as good as what was captured on film. Ford is handsome as ever and decent down to his toes. Borgnine is a teddy bear that gets burned in the end. Steiger is the bad guy and is perfect for the role. A young Bronson in a small part shines. I watched this on the Western channel, which endlessly plays the same movies over and over. However I had never heard of this movie. Being a Glenn Ford fan, I figured that I'd at least watch the beginning. This film will not disappoint anyone who likes good writing, beautiful scenery and wonderful acting.
