From a year that produced such groundbreaking "New Hollywood" films as Bonnie & Clyde and The Graduate, Andrew V. McLaglen's The Way West is an old-fashioned western--grandly shot on location by William Clothier--that did for Oregon what John Ford did for Monument Valley. Based on A.B. Guthrie, Jr.'s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, The Way West stars a steely Kirk Douglas as widowed senator William J. Tadlock, who is determined to "plant a new Jerusalem in the Oregon wilderness." Robert Mitchum costars as Dick Summers, a weary and grieving scout whom Tadlock persuades to help him lead the disparate group of "greenhorn storekeepers and tenderfoot farmers." A lively Richard Widmark also stars as restless Pennsylvania farmer Lije Evans, who's "got to go where I've not been." Traditional western action, including disastrous river crossings and Indian encounters, takes a backseat to the sudsy human dramas. Tadlock is a stern taskmaster who drives the settlers as mercilessly as John Wayne drove those cattle in Red River. At one point, he even makes a play for Evans' wife (Lola Albright). Sally Field makes a memorable screen debut as sexually precocious Mercy, "all hellfire and sin," and who seduces a newly married man whose wife refuses to consummate their marriage. Throw in the accidental shooting of an Indian boy, plus such welcome faces as Jack Elam and Stubby Kaye, and you have an epic adventure that western buffs will follow all the Way. --Donald Liebenson

This movie is one that I watched with my father, when I was young and enjoyed it very much.
Rating:  -
This is an absolutely horrible film. More so than any Western I've ever seen, I've never been so conscience that I was watching a poorly directed Hollywood-cliché ridden farce. EVERYONE walks through their roles (and I am a fan of all three lead actors) no doubt because they know that the script is childish, pretentious, and just plain stupid. "The Big Trail" is twice the film this is.
"Glory be" "this'n" "ain't a-worth-a" watchin' "a'tall"!

Good old fashioned wagon train heads WEST to America's manifest destiny. Great cast, great script, and wonderful country this was filmed in. This is the way Westerns are meant to be made.
Too bad Hollywood doesn't makes films the this anymore. They would sell FAR, FAR, FAR better than anything with Herr Scientological Fuhrer Cruise-O-Whackjob! (MY OPINION OF HIM! Talented but NOT as talented as he thinks he is! Or is credited as being! By his age Charleton Heston had several ... Read More

The one thing I have learned about the so-called "professional" reviewers of films is that they have built in prejudices and ideas just like the rest of us...so I really do not pay that much attention to a review, good or bad. As for The Way West" I have seen this film at least twice. I enjoyed it both times. While I like The Big Sky better, that is not to say I did not enjoy this film. Probably the one negative I have is Sally Fields portraying a young tramp who causes problems for others along ... Read More
