5 Marshall, George
1891-1975George Marshall es uno de los pioneros del viejo Hollywood. Actor, guionista y director desde mediados de los anos 10, su filmografia en el ultimo de los cometidos citados supera el centenar y medio de titulos, entre largometrajes y peliculas de una o dos bobinas. Toca todos los generos, pero parece sentirse mas a gusto en la comedia. No es de los realizadores cuyo recuerdo perdura, y si tenemos en cuenta unicamente los westerns, hay que decir que solo los tres primeros resultan destacables. Su contribucion a La conquista del Oeste es lo menos resenable de la pelicula. Hace gala, en ocasiones, de un sentido del humor algo burdo.Destry Rides Again (Arizona). 1939. 94 minutos.
