  49. Rip-roaring big star, big budget semi-historical story about cattle baron Devereaux Burke, who is enlisted by an aging Andrew Jackson to dissuade Sam Houston from establishing Texas as a republic. Burke must fight state senator Thomas Craden, in the process winning the heart of Craden's newspaper-editor girlfriend Martha Ronda.
  50. Ex-President Andrew Jackson sends Texan Devereaux Burke back home on a mission to facilitate Sam Houston's drive for U.S. statehood.
  51. Greatly enjoyed this film which is not a documentary film on the history of Texas, but a very enjoyable film with great actors like Clark Gable. Clark Gable plays (Devereaux Burke),"Mogambo",'53, who wants Texas to become part of the Union and met with Lionel Barrymore,(Andrew Jackson),"Key Largo",'48, in Washington, and decided to find a very powerful Texan, named Thomas Craden,(Broderick Crawford),"Hightway Patrol",'55 TV Series, who was against Texas from joining the Union and wanted it to remain a LONE STAR STATE. Ava Gardner, (Martha Ronda),"The Snows of Kilimanjaro,",52, who was a very strong willed woman who ran a newspaper and was also a so called girl friend of Thomas Craden which caused great problems between Burke. This is a Hollywood story that is meant to entertain and the veteran actors in this film have created this film into a great black and white Classic.
  52. I can&#39;t believe all the great stars in this movie. Beulah Bondi, Lionel Barrymore (lookin&#39; like hell), Broderick Crawford, William Conrad (playing a Frenchman) and Clark Gable. I hope I look that good when I&#39;m 50. It&#39;s before he became the caricature of himself that he became in later movies. When he puts on his &quot;Clark Gable face,&quot; I just cringe. I don&#39;t know what it is about Ava, but I can&#39;t bear to watch her. She doesn&#39;t gnaw on the scenery in this one, so, it&#39;s better than, say, Mogambo, or The Hucksters, but still. I think it&#39;s my loyalty to Frank Sinatra. <br/><br/>It&#39;s a lovely movie and I really wish it was filmed in color. Does anyone know where this was filmed?
