Illegal

 Edward G. Robinson plays a lawyer whose life falls to pieces when he finds out that a person who was sent to the electric chair was innocent. He becomes a defense attorney instead. The ending is really neat and had me at the edge of my seat. Jayne Mansfield co-stars. 

The Last Sunset

 This western was awesome. I wasn't expecting much when I put it in. Kirk Douglas and Rock Hudson are enemies a sheriff against a criminal. I only cared a bit about this storyline. The one that I was really interested in was about Kirk Douglas and how he can't let go of the love he had for Dorothy Marlone. He finds a new woman in his life with her daughter. However, there are some unexpected plot twists. I love psychological westerns from the 1950s. People talk about how musicals are dead but westerns are the truly gone genre. This one shows the potential of the genre.

The Golden Blade

 This was just all right. Piper Laurie was ok but I like her later performances in Twin Peaks more. In this Rock Hudson has a magical sword and he becomes a heroic figure for princess Piper Laurie. This movie seems to be a waste of Rock Hudson's comic talents but then those movies were just around the corner. 

Has anybody seen my gal?/A Very Special Favor

 

The movies that are on this disc of a Rock Hudson collection are pretty mediocre. But the best of them was Has anybody seen my Gal? is about a single millionaire worried about who he is going to leave his money to when he dies. He rents a room from a family whose grandmother he loved. However, once he gives them the money he sees that they are actually horrible people. I liked that surprise actually. It was the only unpredictable thing in this movie. However, the daughter Piper Laurie is in love with Rock Hudson who works at a pharmacy. The other movie A Very Special Favor has Rock Hudson trying to seduce psychiatrist Leslie Caron. Her father Charles Boyer thinks she's a prude and needs it. There are a couple of jokes hinting at Rock Hudson's homosexuality. The movie is pretty bad and it isn't funny.
