Broken Lance

Broken Lance (1954) starring Spencer Tracy, Robert Wagner, Jean Peters, Richard Widmark. So-so Western in which Tracy plays the patriarch of a cattle empire, and his four sons fall out with him and among themselves. Shades of King Lear! Tracy is in fine form as the father of the clan; Widmark is especially good as the ungrateful son who turns out to be evil. (Subtitles in English are available, as well as closed captions.) Grade: B
