The Prodigal Son (digital quality)
Drama
A German-born Swiss citizen emigrates to the United States in search of a better life and making fortune. The story of John Sutter, an American explorer and entrepreneur, nicknamed by his contemporaries the “Emperor of California".
This movie is genuinely well-made, features excellent photography, intelligent script and superlative performances. For its time this movie is outstanding. One can see many features of a Wild West movie becoming standard after this one. Despite its smaller budget and shorter running time, it is infinitely more effective than Universal’s monumental garbage ‘Sutter’s Gold’.
