Abstract

The article focuses on the rise of Hollywood B-movie director Budd Boetticher to acclaimed auteur status among cinephiles in the 1960s and 1970s. Topics include French critics praising Boetticher's low-budget Westerns starring Randolph Scott, the re-evaluation of Boetticher's work in Andrew Sarris's 1968 book "The American Cinema," and the significance of Boetticher's Ranown Westerns in the context of Hollywood's evolving Western genre during the 1950s.
