Destry Rides Again (DVD, 2003)

A great movie, with a magnificent cast, which includes James Stewart and Marlene Dietrich. James Stewart gives an excellent performance as the mild mannered Deputy Sheriff who refuses to carry guns and his conversion to a gun toting law enforcer who needs to avenge the death of his friend and mentor. Marlene portraits a bawdy bar singer and an henchwoman to the town crook who later on helps Stewart and sacrifices herself for him. Her rendering of the bar-room songs are well belted out, which includes "The Boys In the Backroom" and "Little Joe".

James Stewart is one of my favourites and I have seen most of his movies and followed his career right from the 1930s till he passed away. I had seen this movies several years back on video tape and was impressed with the performance of the entire. The sets are authentic and one feels that he is transported to the wild west of 1800s.

An excellent movie, well produced and directed, I would recommend it to all to see and appreciate.

Fun movie with excellent perfomances by all. Humor and also some sadness. One of my favorites. James Stewart was always outstanding, and quite likeable in this movie. marlene dietrich was also very good as the roudy saloon girl.

what i like about this flick ?? everything a western shoud be---direction-acting--storyline---set design--character actors like Mucha Auer and charlie ruggles..forget about Jimmy Steward, he was to thin to be believable as a gunslinger..this show belongs to the blue angel herself--Marlaina Detriech and don't forget the musical score which enhanced the action...and as they said before me on this classic---they don't make them like this no mo...

Purchased this DVD originally because of the name. My son's name is Destry, so I thought it would be a novelty. I was very surprised that the movie was actually great. Jimmy Stewart played a wonderful part of this old western. I would highly encourage others who like the old time western's to give it a look. They don't make movies like this anymore!
