SAM CADE (Television Movie Release 1972)

 Ben Meyers’ rating: 3.8|5.0 Starsììì 

Sam Cade plays like a television movie rather than a theatrical release and is indeed a compilation of episodes from Cade’s County television series. Despite reliance on the weaker television-type entertainment, this compiled movie shows strong performance by Ed Asner and the straightforward performance of Glenn Ford. The film footage is aged and in need of repair, but not unwatchable.
