For more than 30 years, the actor played the weary and cynical cowboy, and his rough-and-tough presence on-screen was no different than his one off-screen. With a personality fit for western-noir, Robert Mitchum dominated the genre during the mid-20th century, and returned as the anti-hero again during the 1990s before his death. This book lays down the life of Mitchum and the films that established him as one of Hollywood''s strongest and smartest horsemen. Going through early classics like \u003ci\u003ePursued\u003c\/i\u003e (1947) and \u003ci\u003eBlood on the Moon\u003c\/i\u003e (1948) to more recent cult favorites like \u003ci\u003eTombstone\u003c\/i\u003e (1993) and \u003ci\u003eDead Man\u003c\/i\u003e (1995), Freese shows how Mitchum''s nuanced portrayals of the iconic anti-hero of the West earned him his spot in the Cowboy Hall of Fame.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgments vii\u003cbr\u003ePreface 1\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction 3\u003cbr\u003eBona Fides 9\u003cbr\u003eThe Films: 1940s–1970s 13\u003cbr\u003eOff the Trail 179\u003cbr\u003eThe Films: 1990s 199\u003cbr\u003eAdios, Amigo 209\u003cbr\u003eBibliography 217\u003cbr\u003eIndex 225\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"McFarland \u0026 Co Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51040462143831,"sku":"9781476678498","price":27.54,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781476678498.jpg?v=1750946831","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-western-films-of-robert-mitchum-9781476678498","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
