Gary Cooper, as a lanky Wyoming ranch and foreman, places his gun on a poker table after being insulted by one of the gamblers and intones, "If you want to call me that . . . smile." That much quoted line's origin is in this early sound version of the Owen Wister novel, The Virginian, directed by Victor Fleming. When the Virginian meets his old friend Steve (Richard Arlen), he gives him a job on his crew at the Box H Ranch near Medicine Bow, Wyoming. Newly arrived in town is the new schoolmarm, Molly Wood (Mary Brian), and both men take notice. Afterwards, in a saloon, The Virginian encounters the evil Trampas (Walter Huston), and the two get into an argument over a dancer. The Virginian calls Trampas' bluff but, although Trampas backs down, he seethes inside...

Also stars Richard Arlen, Chester Conklin, and Eugene Pallette.

4 of 5 Classic Version of a Classic Western September 16, 2018
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Fort Worth, TX United States  
Another film I have wanted to add to my collection. It's the definitive version IMO. It's a good copy and I am glad to get it. I will be purchasing more films from MD in the future.

5 of 5 5 stars September 2, 2018
Reviewer: William Messing from Saint Paul, MN United States  
I only wish more films were available.  In particular, Geraldine Chaplin in The House Of Mirth.

4 of 5 An early western June 17, 2017
Reviewer: Patrick Hunter from Panorama City, CA United States  
Considering the film is almost ninety years old, it's in amazingly watchable shape.  Neither print nor sound can be first-rate due to the age, but this is about as good as one can expect; it is superior to the old Film Classics VHS, and seems to comes from original elements.

4 of 5 Smile when you see this, pardner! April 3, 2017
Reviewer: James Dean from Fayetteville, NC United States  
Yes, it was made in 1929 and is a little dated, but that did not lessen the enjoyment of seeing it.  You have no trouble understanding that Gary Cooper was on his way to stardom, and Walter Huston is having some fun as the very bad Trampas.
