-Duke' is detective in new flick
By KIM STRACK
for the Collegian
So the Duke has another movie out.
It’s called “Brannigan” and you might
ask: what kind of a name is that for a
Western? It’s not. '•
“Brannigan” is John Wayne’s newest
Review
endeavor and in it he is-called upon to be
a tough, slick detective. But the
stereotype which surrounds thd man still
is evident, and it tends to slow down the
beginning of the film.
The plot follows the usual direction.

Wayne goes after the bad guys and
meets a woman detective in the
process—a flavoring of Women’s
Liberation? In addition are a
prostitution scene, the hired killer
routine, the barroom brawl (which was
pretty funny), bombs exploding, a
kidnapping, the car chase—it goes on
and on.
Throughout, Wayne slowly rises tq the
top of his .pedestal—the real hero.
There’s still something endearing about
him. Once the screenwriters got away
from trying to work his-stereotype into

sometimes gory movie was made less so
by the amusing antics of the many minor
characters. Daniel Pilon as the hired
killer in his black Jaguar XKE was
frighteningly convincing. The car itself
became an animal to be feared.
Overall, something eludes “Bran
nigan” and director Douglas Hickox.
Perhaps it is the screenplay, the
dialogue is rather poor or the actors'
inability, at times, to pull off a joke.iThe
movie just doesn’t have what it takes.
If you can manage to sit through the
dragging first half of the film, the rest
might prove mildly entertaining.
"Brannigan" is just that—an "en
