TOO Many Rivers to Cross

What a crosscurrent of styles! Alan Hale appears to already on "Gilligan's Island," McLaughlan is still doing "The Quiet Man," Tamblynn and Richards appear borrowed from "Seven Brides for Seven Brothers" (as do some of the sets; of course "Seven ..." was made the same year). Parker is nearly a decade too old for the part (In seven years, she'd play George Hamilton's mother!), Taylor about two decades (his adult movie debut was in 1936!). Still, this movie is fun enough. This movie would have been better with more outdoor scenes, and a story that doesn't turn so serious toward the end. However, it is certainly worthwhile and not as predictable as I first thought it would be. With a little better pacing (and more humor) in the second half, "Many Rivers to Cross" would have been first rate. Still, it is a pretty good "near miss".
