Three Godfathers is a 1936 Western film about three bandits who find a dying mother and her infant out in the desert. Walter Brennan stars. It takes place around Christmastime. It's a delightful film that provides something a bit different for the holidays. You can watch it online here at this link
Oh goodness! I remember seeing this many decades ago when I was a kid--a Saturday afternoon movie. Not your average western! Was rather sweet as I recall. :)
Because this blog does not consist of a single focus topic I chose the name Divers and Sundry where "Divers" means being of many and various kinds, and "Sundry" means consisting of a haphazard assortment of different kinds.
...a bit early for the Three Kings?

ReplyDeleteThere was a 1948 John Wayne western along the same lines. I like the variety.
DeleteThis is actually a very touching movie. Different for the time when westerns were macho man movies. Good choice today.
ReplyDeleteI thought it was touching without being treacly. They hit the sweet spot there :)
