Winchester '73 Reviews:
Even if you don't like Westerns...you might like this one! 
2009-04-10 - I have never been particularly fond of Westerns, but Tom Tryon was the draw for me in this film. While this movie is not on the level of "The Cardinal"...still if you are a fan of Mr Tryon...you will enjoy his performance. And what a cast...you don't get a roster of stars in one film like this anymore: John Saxon, Dan Duryea, John Dehner, Joan Blondell...to name a few. Actually the picture focuses mostly on John Saxon...the "Bad Apple" of the family and Tom Tryon is the hero sheriff. The Winchester 73 rifle is the object that everyone seems to want to own in this picture and it makes a few surprising turns so that you don't know "who" will finally end up with this prize. And enjoyable made-for-tv movie that will only take approximately 90 minutes of your time!
Top Rate Universal TV Western With Memorable Cast. 
2008-04-20 - Don't compare this to the James Stewart version. Take it for what it is, an entertaining Universal TV Western from 1967. I had been after this film for over twenty years and finally, thanks to Timeless Media Group, we have another exceptional print. The enthusiastic cast is headed by Tom Tryon, Dan Duryea and the always reliable JOHN SAXON. Mr Saxon chews the secenery and his character exudes menace from his first appearance to his last. Also in the cast John Drew Barrymore, Joan Blondell, John Dehner, Barbara Luna, Paul Fix, John Doucette, Jack Lambert, Jan Arvan, Ned Romero, George Keymas, Robert Bice, David Pritchard and John Hoyt!
Another thing I neglected to mention in previous reviews...Timeless Media Group always have excellent cover art and a nice collection of stills from the films and the price is very reasonable. Keep up the goood work Timeless Media Group!
Winchester 73 1967 Edition.. 
2008-04-07 - I will three things about this movie... SAVE YOUR MONEY... this movie is nothing like the 1950 edition, Jimmy Stewart is great in the 1950 movie of winchester 73. Buy them both, and I think you will see what I did, I wanted the 1967 edition to see how close it was to the 1950 edition, not even close. I would not rate the 1967 edition at even one star...
