LOST RIDERS OF THE HOLLYWOOD SAGE . . .   Fans of Western movies have heard of (and likely seen) the key genre classics: Shane, High Noon, The Searchers, Stagecoach, Red River, Tombstone, and Unforgiven, to name a few. But how many armchair cowboys and cowgirls are aware that thirty years previous to Clint Eastwood’s film, a similarly named movie, The Unforgiven, featured two top 1950s Western stars, Burt Lancaster and Audie Murphy? Or that the story told in Tombstone earlier appeared in an all but lost 1940s film featuring the sadly forgotten Richard Dix?  Beginning in the pre-20th Century era of silent flickers, continuing on through Hollwood’s Golden Age to overlooked masterpieces from our own time, THEY WENT THAT-A-WAY features credits for each ’Oater,’ rare images, and an analysis of each inclusion.. From serious psychological movies produced during the 1950s to those Singin’ Cowboy B pictures that delighted audiences in the 1930s, here is a book designed to complete every Western buff’s desire to know the whole story of an authentic American. genre.
