After waiting so long to recognize some of these grand films in widescreen DVD, it is a major disappointment to watch the quality of the transfers in this collection. As another reviewer has celebrated, Naked Spur is not safe and Cheyenne Social Club looks like the entire film was transferred out of focus. Obscene bit rate to perform two features fit on the (two sided) DVD? Who knows. Hard to beget the source material is marred in this plot. I bought the collection; Cheyenne and Firecreek are available on their fill as a two-disc station that may or may not be better. I’ve seen Warner features 30 years older that glance great better. Shame on you Time Warner.

No Hollywood star ever ‘reinvented’ himself as successfully as Jimmy Stewart, from the idealistic, ‘Aw, Shucks’ boy-next-door of the Golden Age, to the intense, driven loner of the Mann and Hitchcock films of the 50s, to everybody’s accepted ‘father figure’ of the 60s and 70s…this collection, while certainly not his best films of the 1940s-1960s, offers one bonafide ‘classic’ (”The Naked Spur”), and five other titles definitely worth owning!

“The Stratton Account” (1949) – 6′4″ Stewart and 5′1″ June Allyson are so ‘natural’ together in their three films (they also made “The Glenn Miller Sage” and “Strategic Air Thunder”), that you might honestly assume they were married in loyal life! Based on a fair myth, of baseball pitcher Monty Stratton, who miraculously returned to the game after losing his leg in a hunting accident, it’s the chemistry between the stars that makes this film work so well. Stewart has the will to originate a comeback, but Allyson provides the ‘heart’ to form the dream possible. An appetizing film, particularly for baseball fans (who may rep Stewart’s pitching style a bit ’strange’, even when he had both legs!)

“The Naked Spur” (1953) – Arguably, the best of Stewart’s teamings with director Anthony Mann, in an outdoor saga of reward-driven Stewart attempting to bring in affable (but scandalous) outlaw Robert Ryan (who called this one of his common roles) . Complicating matters is Ryan’s devoted girlfriend (Janet Leigh, who was never lovelier), a crusty prospector (Millard Mitchell), and a sleazy ex-soldier (Ralph Meeker, who is trustworthy) . The backdrop of the Rockies is breathtaking, the tension, as Ryan manipulates everyone against Stewart, never lets up, and the finale is spectacular.

Certainly, the best film of the collection!

“The Spirit of St. Louis” (1957) – People are often surprised to spy this Charles Lindbergh biography was directed by Billy Wilder! An almost documentary-style recounting of the events leading to Lindbergh’s solo flight across the Atlantic, in 1927, Stewart was Scheme too old-fashioned in the lead (at 49, portraying the 25-year dilapidated pilot), but he projects so mighty sincerity in the role that you can almost forget his age. While the film is a bit dry, it does offer a attractive search for at a barnstorming pilot with a dream…

“The FBI Account” (1959) – Produced with the cooperation (and supervision) of J. Edgar Hoover and the Federal Bureau of Investigation, don’t request to secure any of the skeletons in the closet of either the agency, or it’s megalomaniac and kinky director, but an gripping epic of the growth of the bureau, seen through the eyes of lifelong agent Stewart. Pudgy of famed cases (and a healthy dose of patriotism and anti-Communist rhetoric, as well), the glossy production was one of Stewart’s most well-liked films, and has some unforgettable moments (as he takes on the KKK, the ‘Most Wanted’ 30s gangsters, and the Nazis) …

“Firecreek” (1968) – Any chance to seek lifelong best friends Stewart and Henry Fonda working together is worth owning, and this offbeat western is an delicious showcase of the stars. Erudite badman Fonda and his gang hole up in a petite town, as pacifist part-time lawman Stewart tries to avoid bloodshed. The tension builds, nicely, as the gang terrorizes his community, and Stewart’s helplessness builds to nettle. The resolution is worth the expressionless buildup, but this is a film you HAVE to be patient with…

“The Cheyenne Social Club” (1970) – Directed by Gene Kelly, the last Stewart/Fonda teaming is a hilarious romp, about aging cowpoke Stewart ‘inheriting’ a bordello. Buddy Fonda tags along to allotment in Jimmy’s satisfactory fortune, and is amazed that his friend wants to SELL the set! Costarring Shirley Jones as a hooker “with a heart of gold” and a desire to determine down with Jimmy, the tone is light, the performances great, and the humor very substantial. While the box office wasn’t grand (people seemed to disapprove seeing Jimmy in this kind of film), the movie is huge fun, and Stewart and Fonda seemed to have a ball, making it!

All in all, this collection is certainly worth investing your money to occupy!
