Three Godfathers

Western fans have saddled up often with these desperados. At least 5 versions - tales of grim men sacrificing their own well-being for the safety of an infant they find while on the lam from a bank heist - have come to the screen. Three Godfathers (with Chester Morris, Walter Brennan and Lewis Stone, directed by Richard Boleslawski) adds touches of humor to the early pre-heist scenes before settling into the tale's profound power and is been described as little-seen and underrated. For this movie and for these three tough hombres, redemption is nigh.
