RAWHIDE SEASON 3


¶ Episode #8
"Incident at Poco Tiempo"
written by Buckley Angell
directed by Ted 'Magnum Force' Post
guests: Agnes Moorehead, Gigi Perreau, Carolyn Hughes, Stewart Bradley, Lew Gallo

It's a Rowdy Yates episode with the support of Jim Quince. Actor Clint Eastwood really shines in many scenes: you recognize his actor's idiosyncrasy. The plot that highlights this actor vehicle is about two mean bandits robbing a bank and kidnapping a priest while the small town believes the holy man was killed by a wandering stranger hence a posse of rough armed men arrest Yates and Quince at the beginning but as the story unfolds and progresses we're witnessing a travel story about faith through three women: a couple of nuns—whose one is young and lack of self-confidence about her destiny—and a fancy paid jezebel. The outcome has the lost feel of the great 50's drama.

¶ Episode #9
"Incident of the Captive"
written by Ted Gardner
directed by Stuart Heisler
guests: Mercedes McCambridge, Albert Salmi, Robert Driscoll, Joe de Santis, Vic Perrin, Allen Jaffe

It's a Mushy episode that deals with his family. We learn the real name of Mushy (Harkness Mushgrove III), that he doesn't know reading. The real plot starts when the mother of Mushy traveling on a stagecoach is ambushed by bandits willing to steal her family medallion and she unmasks one of the hoods by accident. Later on, the outfit of Gil Favor decides to help Mushy to make him a hero in front of his mother in order to stay with the drive and that's when the trouble starts… The three bandits spoil the whole scheme by intruding to murder the woman. Act 1 features the voice-over narration of Mushy, instead of the usual Gil Favor.

¶ Episode #10
"Incident of the Buffalo Soldier"
written by John Dunkel
directed by Ted 'Magnum Force' Post
guests: Woody Strode, Ray Montgomery, Roy Glenn, Rupert Crouse, Charles Stevens

It's a solid solo Rowdy Yates episode that starts with Jim Quince. But above all, it's a blue soldier-oriented one combined with a survival drama depicting the odd and contradictory demoted black Sgt. falsely-accused of the murder of his fellow Corporal. Actor Clint Eastwood not only does the voice-over opening narration but proves to be a good actor in this brutal and gritty adventure of man-hunting that foreshadows his films to come: Eastwod is bloody, hurt and almost dead like in a Sergio Leone films. Director Ted Post does a good job by using the wilderness scenery. Actor Woody Strode part as Corporal Washington makes a veiled reference to John Ford's 1960 "Sergeant Rutledge".


"Only one rule: Look out for yourself."
—Corporal Gabe Washington.

Actor Clint Eastwood not only does the voice-over opening narration (…).





"They tell us just since the war, this beef cattle we drive north are changing the eating habits of the whole country.
Changing the farming ways too, I understand. Well, I don't know. These beeves might mean a square meal to some,
but they just mean trouble to me. My name's Rowdy Yates, I'm ramrodder of this herd. Sometimes I wish I wasn't."
—Rowdy Yates.

¶ Episode #12
"Incident at the Top of the World"
written by Louis Vittes, Peggy and Lou Shaw
story by Peggy and Lou Shaw
directed by Ted 'Magnum Force' Post
guests: Robert Culp, Les Tremayne, Jan Shepard, Paul Carr, Ronald Foster, Bill Cutter

It's an odd case entry dealing with a war veteran named Craig Stern suffering from morphine addiction because an experimental operation. Anyway, a military MD begs Favor to hire the sick veteran to work as a cow hand to help him to drop drug when his former flame makes things complicated. The strong point of this hard edge character's study is the manic performance of actor Robert Culp who displays the pathology of his mental state with dreadful consequences on the drive. The episode title refers to the obsessive catch-phrase of the veteran: "I'm on top of the world."
