My grandfather who passed named me after this movie, Shane.. he said to my mother that he named none of his 9 grandchildren and i was the first he named. I can say now after seeing this that pops had good taste :D
THE best film of all time. Great on so many levels. Alan Ladd is fantastic, and Jack Palance was never better. The rest of the cast, locations, etc were superb... 10/10
lol my mom did this to me once.... i was leaving home to go to school and my mom came out of the house and she was like "SHANE!!!!!! you forgot your lunch money".... i had to stop and go back for it LOL.
@shannon7190 no me and my dad seen that also back in the 80s but they took it out for the dvd release, btw the part of america that they filmed this in was fucking brethtaking those big mountains made the isolation seem all the more vivid
One of my all time favorites and much more than a typical shoot 'em up western, this 1953 film beautifully captures a poignant story of the rugged people who helped tame and settle the west. Great in every way!
I remember earlier this year I wanted to see Shane so badly and when I saw it, I was mesmerized. Shane is THE most beautiful and greatest western of all time, easily my favourite in this genre!
a magnificent and moving film. a fine understated performance from Alan Ladd, the set pieces and of course the final shoot out are superb. A film to treasure
@FuckWorkdays In my opinion , yes . But as you know , it's always a question of taste . The showdown in " The Good , the Bad and the Ugly " is really great as is the final shootout in " The Wild Bunch " for example . Interesting that " Shane " is one of the best western movies although director George Stevens wasn't actually a western director ...
shane i believe was the "best film ... first saw it in 1953... still one of my favorite today ! alan ladd.. sensitive gunfighter! grand tetons"... incredible backdrop !
The worst thing about "Shane" is that it was filmed from July to October of 1951, just before the introduction of Cinemascope and the initial widescreen movie, "The Robe," in 1953. I would love for "Shane" to be available in widescreen, but this was just the fate of bad timing. The delay in releasing "Shane" to theaters not until 1953 was mostly due to director George Stevens' lengthy and meticulous editing process, but also partly because Paramount believed this film would be a flop.
I´ve seen the film 2 times, last 20 years ago, I know every scene. I have the book in the very, very rare german edition (I´m from germany) and in english to. It´s great, propably better than the film. In the film the best role are Joy and bad bad Wilson. And the music is great.
@oldwaddie Shane is up there, without a doubt, but the Searchers will always be No. 1. in my book. There is just not enough films of this calibre nowadays.
@oldwaddie What about The Good, the Bad and the Ugly or The Hired Hand or The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance or Unforgiven or Red River or McCabe and Mrs. Miller or Once Upon a Time in the West or...
This is my prefered film. Nowadays it seems americans forgot how to make fine films and music. There was no replacement for the old american actors e directors.
My mother didn't name me after this film...my grandfather neither.

I agree although I was not a fan of John Wayne, his best I think was 'The Man who shot Liberty Wallace'.
In our modern time "Dances with Wolves" and "Unforgiven", are just as good. But "Shane" remains my favorite.

Great western with a heroic Alan Ladd and a villianous Jack Palance.
Makes me think of Bill Hicks' routine on the foreign policy of USA.
