George Stevens' classic Western, adapted from the Jack Schaefer novel, stars Alan Ladd in the title role. Riding the ranges of Wyoming's Grand Tetons, Shane stops at the farm of homesteader Joe Starrett (Van Heflin) just before Ryker (Emile Meyer), a powerful and predatory cattleman, arrives with his hired muscle to make the farmer a threatening offer for land that he intends to get by any means necessary. When Shane lets the cattle baron know that his gun will back Starrett if there's any trouble, the grateful homesteader offers the stranger a job as a hired hand, which he accepts. Joe's young son Joey (Brandon de Wilde) is drawn to the quiet stranger, whose difference from the men he knows is confirmed by the accidental revelation of a gunfighter's lightning reflexes. Shane becomes a valuable asset to the farm, but is slowly drawn into the continuing hostilities between the two opposing groups. To complicate matters, Shane feels an unspoken, and unwanted, attraction to Starrett's wife Marian (Jean Arthur). This creates a sense of ambivalence in Joe, whose son already idolizes the gunslinger. (jakelijan virallinen teksti)

"Shane" is one of the other classic westerns, a movie with the name of the main hero in the title. Something like "Django" or maybe "Winnetou," which I will mention later. It is a classic American western, which you can simply tell at first glance, in this case, it is additionally enhanced by a rugged style, in which the landscape and individual characters are presented. The opening scene with the boy aiming at the deer - or is it a stag? - is an example of how close to nature these movies can sometimes be. At the same time, they are also an example of how virtuous people can be and how honorable they can be. However, alongside them, there are always villains who are somehow clear from the first sight. There is nothing kind about them, and you can recognize them immediately. More: http://www.filmovy-denik.cz/2013/02/shane-1953-70.html

Despite the year it was made, I saw the film for the first (and last) time today. It left a rather unfavorable impression on me (a euphemism). I have the book at home, and I do like to reread it from time to time, so it’s the filmmakers who are to blame for all the shortcomings of this film. Unlike other westerns, this one failed to offer a good atmosphere, there wasn't any suspense, the action scenes looked ridiculous, the acting performance of the lead actor was pathetic. I could go on.
