SCREENING: The Lusty Men (1952), directed by Nicholas Ray, shot in Pendleton, Oregon.
The Lusty Men

Robert Mitchum, Susan Hayward and Arthur Kennedy star in this rodeo love triangle. A terrific, little seen film with wonderful acting, The Lusty Men is the rare Western made for adults.

The Lusty Men is a cult film adored by fans of Ray, a list which includes Martin Scorsese, Jim Jarmusch, Wim Wenders and Jean Luc Godard, who observed "cinema is Nicholas Ray."
Nicholas Ray

Martin Scorsese studied filmmaking with Ray, who reportedly told his NYU students, "The dialogue is just the accompaniment. The melody is in the eyes." The third act of The Lusty Men takes place at the Pendleton Roundup. 

The Lusty Men will be shown in 35mm.
