Product Information
When four men who Jim Douglas (Gregory Peck) believes raped and killed his wife escape from their death sentences, Jim sets out to track the men down and enact his own vengeance. An honest man, Jim sees his actions as just and brave, but as he crisscrosses Mexico to exact an eye for an eye, he comes to realize that he has lost something of himself in his self-absorbed quest for revenge. Peck did his best work in characters with strong arcs, and THE BRAVADOS is no exception. Carrying the film from scene to scene, Peck hits his mark dead on when he realizes that the men he is after may actually be innocent, providing an exceptional cinematic moment. Joan Collins does a fine job as Josefa Velarde, an old flame of Jim's, but Peck's real costar is the gorgeous color photography of the mountains and ravines of the Mexican countryside.Actors and Key Contributors: Gregory Peck, Joan Collins, Stephen Boyd, Albert Salmi, Henry Silva,

Spotlight Review
Searing Western with a very tough Gregory Peck
Written
By Stephen_Murray
on Wed Jan 02 22:34:48 EST 2002I wouldn't go quite as far as Bob Dylan (in "Brownsville Girl") that I'd see Gregory Peck in anything (I draw the line at "David and Bathsheba"), but I'd watch most any Gregory Peck film I haven't seen and many that I have. Being a big fan of the 1950...
Pros: Gregory Peck, Henry Silva, scenery, issues of vengeance/justice.
Cons: Joan Collins, filtering daytime shots to masquerade as night-time.
Bottom Line: A great 1950s western of particular current relevance and showcasing a great performance by Gregory Peck.
