I thoroughly disliked The Light of Western Stars, and it is one of the three worst westerns I ever saw. Let's start with the worst of the worst. Harry Green. I had never seen Harry Green before, but he is the worst stereotype of a Jewish person I ever saw ( be basically makes Jackie Mason sound like William Powell or Ronald Colman). A character like that has no business being in a western. Then there is Richard Arlen ( Dick Bailey) and Regis Toomey (Bob Drexell). Those two have been in countless films and neither one has ever impressed me ( especially Toomey). Then there is Mary Brian. She was the best one in the movie ( probably because she is good looking ( although she was much better in The Virginian ( as was Arlen) and Only The Brave (both films had Gary Cooper which helped a lot, although I doubt even Cooper could have saved this movie))). I give it one star: Just for looking at Mary Brian.
