Ride Lonesome(1959)

6.7/10

dir. Budd Boetticher

S-Tier

Part of Criterion's Budd Boetticher Ranown Cycle set. Barely any standalone discussion since it lives inside a box set. S-Tier transfer of a 1959 western that mostly appeals to Criterion completionists and classic western fans who already know Boetticher's name.
