Kent, the unscrupulous boss of Bottleneck has Sheriff Keogh killed when he asks one too many questions about a rigged poker game that gives Kent a stranglehold over the local cattle rangers. The mayor, who is in cahoots with Kent appoints the town drunk, Washington Dimsdale, as the new sheriff assuming that he'll be easy to control. But what the mayor doesn't know is that Dimsdale was a deputy under famous lawman, Tom Destry, and is able to call upon the equally formidable Tom Destry Jr to be his deputy. Featuring a career reviving performance from Marlene Dietrich as bar singer Frenchie, which could well have been the inspiration for Madeline Kahn's "Blazing Saddles" character, Lili Von Schtupp.
Leave your thoughts about Destry Rides Again.
| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonWhile not a major film, it's one of those odd Hollywood mixtures where everything comes together just right. |
| EmanuelLevy.ComEmanuel LevyStarring James Stewart and Marlene Dietrich, both in top form, this comedic-erotic Western was one of the most commercially popular films of 1939. |
| Slant MagazineChuck BowenAbove all, Destry Rides Again is fun, with a variety of stars and character actors utilizing their charisma with an expert sense of ease and offhandedness. |
| The New York TimesFrank S. NugentA bit of the old West with a good bit of the old Dietrich in it; a tightly written, capitally directed show, with perfectly grand supporting performances. |
| Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN)Bob BloomA wonderful comic Western with Stewart and Dietrich at top form. Always a pleasure to watch. |
| Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)Ken HankeOverrated, but with enough great moments to be a must-see |
| Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL)Jeffrey WesthoffShows that the deconstruction of the Western began long before Unforgiven |
| The SpectatorGraham GreeneA rather tired Western with a rather tired Dietrich. |
| Los Angeles TimesKevin ThomasThe material makes no demands on the talents of James Stewart and Marlene Dietrich, but they enter gamely into the farcical tone set by director George Marshall. |
| EmpireDavid ParkinsonTypical James Stewart defeating bullies with integrity stuff. |
