Topic: Wesley Ruggles


  
  Wesley Ruggles - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wesley Ruggles (June 11, 1889 - January 8, 1972) was an American film director.
Ironically, Ruggles had been hired to helm it because as an American, it was thought, he was better equipped to handle a musical - despite the fact that nothing in his past had prepared him to work in the genre.
Ruggles died in 1972 in Santa Monica and was interred in the Forest Lawn Memorial Park Cemetery in Glendale, California.

 Laurel & Hardy in Robin Hood!
Ruggles thought that the notion of bringing two of England's most popular stage comedians together with America's cinematic equivalent was paving the box office with gold, but the actual storyline left a lot to be desired.
Wesley Ruggles, who from those who remember him, seems to have been a rather loud, aggressive American film maker with a winning smile and a quick tongue, which would make his obviously disastrous ideas pave their streets in gold, was coordinating the whole project.
Ruggles would have had to act as a human dynamo to complete such a schedule, and by all accounts he seemed capable of doing this, with the imperative being that he had to have the whole thing ready for release before the Boys left for home in America toward the end of Autumn that year.

Comedy detail has been adroitly worked out and the picture is strongly fortified on laughs, all derived from the West innuendos and the general good-natured bawdiness of the heroine, whose progress from a carnival mugg-taker to a deluxe millionaire-annexer is marked by a succession of gentlemen friends, mostly temporary and usually suckers.
Wesley Ruggles has directed the film with his usual intelligence.

 REELINSIDER.COM - CIMARRON (1931)
Described as being, "Terrific As All Creation", Cimarron is a decidedly slight movie important only for having won the 4th Academy Award and not for any staying power across the passage of decades.
Based as it is on Edna Ferber's best-selling novel of the same name the film is closely associated with her romantic vision of masculine heroism and the conflict between individual conquest and advancing civilization.
Director Wesley Ruggles's film realistically conveys this pioneer landscape of late nineteenth century Oklahoma yet it also lacks the nuance of an interesting plot.

His long-suffering wife, Sabra (Irene Dunne), ends up having to care for the children alone as he pops in and out of their lives.
For pure history, this is a must, but it's laughable at times because of its overwrought machismo and intense over-acting.

The film suffers from overlong scenes, albeit the photography is superb, reflecting meticulous period sets and majestic scenery; much of this film was later used by Columbia as stock footage for its low-budget programmers, one way execs thought to recoup the studio's then-hefty budget of $2 million.
Director Ruggles, who triumphed with CIMARRON in 1931, employed hundreds of Tucson natives as extras and was a stickler for accuracy, a penchant that sometimes slows down the pace and zigzags the story line.
The film is nevertheless an enjoyable big western with plenty of action.
