  • Bonanza - Episode 32 - Death at Dawn - When a powerful gang plagues Virginia City with a murderous protection racket, the Cartwrights are determined to stop it even as it threatens them.
    Death at Dawn
    Director: Charles F. Haas
    Writer: Laurence E. Mascott (as Laurence Mascott)
    Stars: Michael Landon, Lorne Greene, Pernell Roberts
    Genre: Western
    Country: USA
    Language: English
    Release Date: 30 April 1960 USA
    Filming Locations: Paramount Studios - 5555 Melrose Avenue, Hollywood, Los Angeles, California, USA
    Storyline:
    It's a sad day in Virginia City when Farmer Perkins shoots a store clerk down in cold blood right in front of his wife, then is allowed to walk after his trial. But if the Cartwright's have anything to do with it, he'll be rearrested, tried, and hung." Written by Michelle P. on IMDb.com
    Reviews:
    "Before Ray Teal became sheriff in Virginia City there was a lot of lawlessness and it had an organized protection racket headed by Robert Middleton one of the mine owners. In its early days there was a lot more emphasis on mining which was why Virginia City was founded.
    In any event Nancy Dealle's husband resisited and one of Middleton's thugs, Gregory Walcott just shot him down. Both Dan Blocker and Michael Landon were witnesses and testify as such.
    For the life of me I don't know why Walcott didn't ask for a jury trail. He's one hateful lout of a human being, but you would think Middleton could intimidate enough for at least a hung jury.
    So in a bench trial he's convicted and he's scheduled to hang promptly. But Middleton and his gang grab Ben Cartwright and threaten to hang him if Walcott swings.
    It's here where the Cartwright sons themselves have have a disagreement over what to do. Some fine acting and dialog between Adam, Hoss, and Little Joe.
    A good story to wrap season one of Bonanza." Written by bkobanbing on IMDb.com
    "This episode always gets me. A man walks into the general store, asks the man to pay him for protection, then shoots him in cold blood when he refuses. But what appears to be an open and shut case is anything but when you have a town of people who are too afraid to say anything. Even the widow has to be convinced to testify what she saw him do with his own eyes...
    Farmer Perkins' life is pure evil. He's one of those people that has absolutely no value for human life - except for his own. Even when he's found guilty and sentenced to hang, he laughs about it knowing that his friend who seems to run the town will clear everything up. If I'm not mistaken, the actor who plays Sam Bryant, Robert Middleston, played a baddie on The Monroes. He's another of those character actors who plays a good baddie...
    Of course, Adam's vainness is allowed to show on this episode. I was with Ben and Little Joe and think the writer's did an injustice by letting Adam prove himself correct.
    Good episode." Written by mitchrmp on IMDb.com

  • @multirichardb
    @multirichardb Před 3 lety +5

    The one thing I haven't commented on is the music, melodies, or the stimulation, it's peril, or antagonistic music, exciting, horse riding music, happy or celebration music, pay attention to it because it's actually unconscious and we don't pay attention, and empathize because of the music, or the tune, the melody. Another great episode. Thank you.

    • @user-pd7il3xz5j
      @user-pd7il3xz5j Před 2 lety +1

      Some people tune into the music, some don't, but either way the music influences how we are reacting to the scene, true. Since these episodes are all available at one time, I find it interesting how the later seasons had such different music (which I don't care for).
      Other aspects of this show that are pleasing are the landscapes and camera direction in the earlier seasons.
