Wild untamed thing
‘Untamed’ could and should have been good. Have always loved adventure films, with splashes of drama and romance. All the cast members have been great in other things, having seen a number of Tyrone Power films recently. Henry King did a fair share of good and more films, cannot sing my praises of ‘Song of Bernadette’ enough. Have always loved Franz Waxman as a composer, both his film scores and his concert music arrangements.

Although there is a good deal to like here, ‘Untamed’ came up rather short and was something of a disappointment. It looks wonderful and has some great scenes, but the cast are mixed, the characters never really connected with me and it does suffer badly from trying to do too much. ‘Untamed’ can never be accused of not trying, if anything it tries too hard and everything that sounded so interesting on paper is not done enough with.

There are a fair share of good things here. The production values are truly lavish with all of the photography leaving me in awe, the best of it is absolutely stunning, and the settings certainly looked as though a lot of time and money went into them. Waxman’s score has a lot of rousing character and sweeping lushness without being over-bearing. King’s direction has some inspired moments.

Namely in the well-staged action-oriented sequences. The zulu attack stuck with me. The cast were mixed, but some come off well. Richard Egan is charismatic and feisty, as is Rita Moreno, and John Justin is imposing. Ever the consummate scene stealer, Agnes Moorehead is always guaranteed to make any film she appeared in better and that’s the case here.

It is a shame that Tyrone Power doesn’t have an awful lot to work with and is quite bland. Susan Hayward overplays her role and comes over as very annoying. As said the characters didn’t connect with me in that none are interesting or worth getting behind, plus they are ones with muddled and under-explored character motivations that don’t ring true. Hayward’s character writing and acting was so overdone that it was hard to believe that anybody saw anything in her, Power’s has so little to it and although Egan does do a fine job in his role his character’s too much of an idiot.

While King’s direction has moments, it could have done with more tension and urgency in other places. The script came over as both over-stuffed, from trying to cram too much in, and undernourished, from not doing anywhere enough with the material. Which was true for the story too, really liked the action but generally it fails to excite or charm, the romantic chemistry is off because of not being able to care for the characters and there is too much content and too much of it glossed over.

Not bad overall, but a disappointment. 5/10

WAGON TRAIN TREKS SOUTH AFRICA. PRISTINE WEIRD DRAMA.
Susan Howard sets off to farm South Africa in lovely clean outfit. Stays clean all the way through. The Zulu is magnificent. Tyrone Power acts like a stick of celery.
