Customer Reviews of Night Passage
Don't overlook Jimmy Stewart when it comes to westerns. A lot of people seem to dismiss Jimmy Stewart as a serious western actor because of the good-natured "aw shucks" style he conveyed in the movies he made prior to World War II. But Stewart served in WW II in the dangerous role of a bomber pilot, and the experience clearly toughened the image he portrayed in the series of westerns he made after the war. Night Passage is a very good western and the role Stewart portrays is far tougher than the amiable character he played in the pre-war comedic western Destry Rides Again. Another thing I like about Night Passage is that it features a fine performance, as Stewart's outlaw brother, by Audie Murphy -- WW II's most decorated soldier, and a much better actor than the B movies he most often appeared in gave him a chance to show. Still another interesting aspect of Night Passage is a significant role for Brandon de Wilde -- a fine young actor who, regrettably, is all but forgotten except for his role as the boy Joey in Shane. Then there's Dan Duryea in an over-the-top performance as the ruthless leader of a band of train robbers. For some reason Night Passage has never achieved the recognition it's script, cast, and performances deserve. I hope its release on DVD will help cure this oversight. If you like westerns, please give Night Passage a try.
Very good but unjustly-overlooked western.

One of the hidden westerns gems!
Cain and Abel once more work out for this western. Stewart works for the railroad and his brother belongs to a gang which is planning to rob train payroll.
This story turns around the ancestral myth of two brothers who live exactly opposite proposals.
Stewart made a credible role and Audie Murpphy is unforgettable too with this plot.
Believe or not this western - to me - has been underestimated, but it well deserves for you a sight. May be you 'll be surprised.
The climax is superb and towering.
