Snubbed Forever: Glenn Ford
Dir. Delmer Daves. 1957, 92 mins. U.S. DCP. The laidback magnetism of Glenn Ford isn’t the kind of performance style that usually wins Academy Awards, but the psychological complexity and cool-as-ice charisma Ford brought to his roles in genre films made him one of the low-key great movie stars of Hollywood’s golden age. As the ostensible villain of Delmer Daves’s western classic, the outlaw Ben Wade who is being guarded and brought to justice by civilian rancher Dan Evans (Oscar-winner Van Heflin), Ford keeps peeling back layers of humanity, even as the two men enact a tense cat-and-mouse game. 3:10 to Yuma is a morally complicated thriller, tight as a drum, and elegantly shot by western master Charles Lawton Jr.
