Editorial Review:
Description:
et in Oklahoma from 1890-1915. A quarter century of change is seen through experiences of a pioneering couple determined to succeed in America. Based on a novel by Edna Ferber.
Amazon.com:
The 1960 remake of Cimarron manages a slight improvement on the worst Best Picture (1931) in Academy Award history. Not that Edna Ferber's novel of pioneer Oklahoma was ever a movie natural. There's a plethora of themes--several species of prejudice, capitalism vs. charity, sons unhappily following in fathers' footsteps, and the irreconcilable tensions between a stability-craving wife and her footloose hero-husband--but the action is front-loaded and the husband (Glenn Ford) is offscreen for years at a time. Anthony Mann gets solo directorial credit, yet the movie seems more typical of his replacement, Charles Walters, a maker of pastel musicals. Most of the large cast comes and goes without establishing identities; Maria Schell's Sabra Cravat is tiresome as both ditz and pill. Photographed in CinemaScope and Metrocolor by Robert L. Surtees, the Oklahoma land rush is properly spectacular--though less impressive than John Ford's in Three Bad Men. --Richard T. Jameson

I know that this is one of the most under-rated westerns, but it also has its die-hard fans like myself who consider it a long-lost classic. I'm so happy it's finally on DVD. I think it's one of Anthony Mann's greatest films, much more sweeping and visually creative than the original, and I've always been moved by Maria Schriver's performance, and of course Glenn Ford who is always great. I think it is a particularly deep western- complex and interesting even when it fails at times... I think its epic ... Read More

CIMARRON (1960) was MGM's big Cinemascope/colour remake of RKO's epic 1930
production of Edna Ferber's classic story of the same name. From a
screenplay by Arnold Schulman it was - I am loath to say - unevenly directed by Anthony Mann.
I am quite astonished - even aghast - that some reviewers on these pages
have given this film a five and even four star rating together with wholly exagerated claims that it is Mann's best and most underrated western. It is nowhere near his ... Read More

Maybe I was spoiled by the 1931 version of this film. In particular the very hammy portrayal of Yancey by Richard Dix has come to grow on me just as Irene Dunne's wonderful portrayal of Sabra. That film won an unbelievable Best Picture Oscar and even a Best Actor nomination for Dix. This movie is far superior to the original, especially with Glenn Ford as Yancey playing it straight this time. It confronts head-on the social issues that the original just skirts around, yet in doing this it just seems to take ... Read More

I don't remember when this movie reached the general public but I do remember that I was quite young at the time. I was in the Army and it was soon after I left high school(it only cost a quarter to see a movie then). I was impressed to see a story of a man who was so independent. He was so independentthat it worked against his family. However, the story depicted the the raw individualism of the typical westerner of our great country. Life and times were difficult in those days and westerners refected their ... Read More
