New Frontier (1939)
This hour-long mini-western is forgettable, silly, and downright lousy. It stars “the three Mesquiteers” (John Wayne, Ray Corrigan, and Raymond Hatton) in another short western where they help out folks in a small town and then ride off in the sunset. It’s low-budget, forgettable, and simple. It was the last Mesquiteers movie Duke made, because Stagecoach was released and elevated him to bigger and better films, but the series did continue without him.
There is one reason to rent New Frontier: Phylis Isely. If you don’t know that name, look for the beautiful face. There’s one beautiful girl in town with dark hair, and expressive mouth, and a distinctive way of talking that blends innocence with maturity. She’s the girl in gingham that John Wayne bumps into and spills all the napkins. Recognize her now? It’s Jennifer Jones in her film debut using her birth name before David O. Selznick got ahold of her.
Again, you don’t have to watch this movie. If you’re a John Wayne fan, there are so many other movies to see. I’m Jonesy’s biggest fan, so naturally I had to see it. She looked extremely young (as she should at twenty years old!) and her acting was pretty green, but it was worth watching her first attempt. What a doll.
