Great B&W photography frames brutal desert sun frying unraveling minds

Far and away, the single most memorable aspect about STAGECOACH TO DANCERS' ROCK is its B&W cinematography by Ed Fitzgerald, framing very fittingly a stagecoach trip in Arizona desert conditions.Inside the stagecoah, we get to learn about the characters: Dollard, Dr Thompson, Major Southern, Judy Dan (the Chinese girl with smallpox that is sending shivers down the spines of just about everyone) and, of course, poetry-reciting, philosophical and complete nutter Dade Coleman, consumately portrayed by Martin Landau.There are some sequences difficult to believe, notably Coleman finding a water canteen and no one else seeing him drink it. The smallpox sores on Dan's face are believable but overdone, and Dan looks genuinely uneasy about having to display such skin distortions.Coleman's rape and subsequent murder of Dr Thompson come as a shock, and add nothing to the movie in terms of character, so ultimately the screenplay by Kenneth Darling struck me as needlessly brutal, unfeeling, and devoid of moral values. On the other hand, it impressed me that this so amoral flick should have been done in 1962, when the multifarious production code still hung over the US movie industry.Rather disappointing despite the superb cinematography, good acting. I doubt I will rewatch it. 6/10.
