I don't remember individual glasses of milk or hamburgers I consumed when I was a junior high schooler, but I do remember this modestly interesting Holstein of a movie. Directed by Edward Dmytryk, who put together one of my very favorite movies, Mirage, Alvarez Kelly tells the story of rebel Richard Widmark trying to hijack a herd of meat for his starving Confederacy from rancher William Holden.

The only reason I even reviewed this movie is that, when I saw it on TV around 1972 or 1973, I thought it was pretty good.

Not great. Palatable. Sort of like . . .
