She was also a guest star on Rawhide with Eric Fleming. The episode title was "The Captain's Wife". She played a similar role as a strong-willed, independent and selfish woman. It was a good episode. (Sorry, I can't remember which season.) Miss Stanwyck gives another great performance opposite Eric Fleming (Gil Favor).
You can really tell that Stanwyck was in her "element" whilst playing in Westerns; and, because of her enthusiasm, her performances were elevated and very convincing. A tough "broad" who wasn't worried about breaking her fingernails....for that quality, I found her very refreshing.
For those who see only today's version of great, watch this episode and see what the term great really means. Stanwyck takes a "Wagon Train" script and elevates it to her high standard. You know when someone (Stanwyck) has you in tears during the final scene, this is no ordinary actress. What you see today pales in comparison to these true greats.
I love MeTV for putting great shows like this on their station!! I am thankful. It's too bad they do not make shows like this anymore! Hollywood has went over the cliff and into the swamp, for the most part. This is the first time I have ever seen this awesome sort of television!! Thanks for uploading this!!
The tough attitude Barbara Stanwyck had was just for protection. She had a hard upbringing which taught her a lot of lessons early in her life. That she was a vulnerable very caring person behind the brittle facade wasn't news to her close friends, and any kindness she received often left her in tears. I have learned this recently, and now count her as a great "Dame" and one special star from the Golden Age of Movies.
Loved that lady so much. Some didn't like Stanwyck's tough demeanor but I found it exceptionally refreshing. This lady was NOT concerned about her nail polish!
Part of her " tough " attitude is she always wanted the female " pants " role in any Western; more than a coincidence. Comes across as a " butch " in her Westerns.
The great actress Barbara Stanwyck! The great thing about Wagon Train is they always had a name star in their episodes like many of the TV western series of the day did. She had her own TV western series 'The Big Valley.'
wen Chris and Flint showed up at the womens train...."wat did u do go home and get ur father"....that line by Barbara Stanwyck cracked me up wen she said that to Flint ....hahahahha
John McEntire and Barbara were both born in 1907. No doubt she accepted the role just so she could kiss Robert Horton, who was 15 years her junior! And did she ever get to kiss him a lot!
I loved that film! More, please! 👏👏 Sounded just like people of today. I loved all of it! The disrespect, the upside-down priorities, pride, selfishness, rebellion, greed, and wacky values were all the same. When will we ever learn?
Once in a while a real "A" list actor or actress would guest star. Barbara Stanwick was in one. Bette Davis appeared in 3 episodes. Others were Charles Laughton, Peter Lorre, John Wayne, Ronald Reagan, Linda Darnell, Mickey Rooney.
The same man who wrote the theme music for this show also wrote the main title.music.for the movie " The Jay hawkers," For some reason he got away with Useing the movie title music for this show.
kerrgal unaware there was a song.Its great to see one of my fav people when he was young.Refer to Barney,aka Michael Burns one of the Shiloh boys,along with Mike Sarrazin,Jan Vincent,Harrison Ford,Don Stroud,Paul Peterson n James Caan.Fav for ever movie.Its maddening I cannot get sound on all of these episodes though.The series aired b4 my time n it's good to catch up.
Melissa Cox I agree that this is absolutely the worst Wagon Train that I have ever seen..... terrible story, horrible props.....just awful.....they could have done better.
I like these old movies too, but I dislike the stereotypes they reinforce about women & men, especially about women. Comparing them to mules, being hard handed with them to make them behave, keeping them safe & helpless.
Good acting, She played the gold digger really well. although it is completely opposite of her real personality. she is headstrong and strong willed, but not wicked like the woman in the story.
Barbara stanwyck didn't like davis for some reason. I read book many years ago. More than likely snobbery. Joan Crawford was brought in to equalize Betty Davis. I'm not talking gossip, just facts from book I read years ago. Some actors didn't get along for various reasons.
Not accurate. Stanwyck just wasn't a fan of horror movies. Stanwyck "really doesn't care about doing the type of thing" Crawford and Davis found profitable during the era. What’s DAVIS' on the set BEHAVIOR? A review of the 2007 David biography "Dark Victory: The Life of Bette Davis" begins by calling her "a real piece of work" and references quotes from fellow actress Barbara Stanwyck, who described Davis' "creative ruthlessness." Stanwyck was a class act, everyone loved her.
Wagon Train Had Went To Color Twice In 1961 On NBC When It Was One Hour As Well As In 1963 And 90 Minutes On ABC Then
Excellent series from the Good Old Days of t.v. programming! Thanks!
🌟 Barbara Stanwick, a Star of the Screen and a Star of a Person.
She truly sat a bar few can achieve.

she was absolutely wonderful..one of the all greats.
You can really tell that Stanwyck was in her "element" whilst playing in Westerns; and, because of her enthusiasm, her performances were elevated and very convincing. A tough "broad" who wasn't worried about breaking her fingernails....for that quality, I found her very refreshing.
In these old classics men and women don’t get away with much sh#!, incredibly refreshing in this day and age!

I have never heard of hollywood quite like going over the clif into the swamp but i certainly agree
If you were born in the 50's, you saw great acting like this all the time. I haven't watched a TV series in years. They're all crap.
Me TOO.

Maybe the tough attitude she had was just the script that the director assigned her.
@@carolcole570I agree

I had no idea these were on RUclips! I only found this show a month or so ago, on MeTV. I'm so glad to see that I can watch them online!
great story
Anything that has Barbara Stanwyck slapping somebody is PERFECTION!
The great actress Barbara Stanwyck! The great thing about Wagon Train is they always had a name star in their episodes like many of the TV western series of the day did. She had her own TV western series 'The Big Valley.'
All that, just to be needed and loved. Great story! Thank you for uploading this!!!
Barbara Stanwyck is fabulous !
wen Chris and Flint showed up at the womens train...."wat did u do go home and get ur father"....that line by Barbara Stanwyck cracked me up wen she said that to Flint ....hahahahha
She’s a great actress but she was always a smart arse even as a child!

I was just a young child when Wagon Train was made, just great to be catching up with it now
I love the story lines of the wagon train 🚂🚂🚂 This one especially is a Tearjerker!!!
This is also one of my favorite
W agon
Train episodes.
Excellent episode. I love Barbara Stanwyck, one of my favs. Thanks for the upload! 👍🤠
Watch The Big Valley where she shines.
I loved that film! More, please! 👏👏
Sounded just like people of today. I loved all of it! The disrespect, the upside-down priorities, pride, selfishness, rebellion, greed, and wacky values were all the same.
When will we ever learn?
Unfortunately, I don't have any more episodes, but you can find "The Molly Kincaid Story" here on RUclips.
Once in a while a real "A" list actor or actress would guest star. Barbara Stanwick was in one. Bette Davis appeared in 3 episodes. Others were Charles Laughton, Peter Lorre, John Wayne, Ronald Reagan, Linda Darnell, Mickey Rooney.
The programme was so popular, most of the big ' stars' would be eager to appear.

This is why wagon train was the greatest
I always liked Wagon Train.😉

Julia Hamilton me too I enjoy shows like this 💯
And this is where the term "gold digger"came from...
MS stanwyick is one hell of an actress
32:53 she comes around the back of a wagon train with sawed wood she just happened to find lol some of them were perfectly square pieces
Mrs. Barkley. How come your not in the big valley?.Why the wagon train?.
Think of Rosie the riveter. , Wendy the welder. Be strong!!!. Believe in your self. Oh. This is the 19th century.
She's the only actress who puts all of self into a role
She's a real og
And then there's Maud...what a tough ol'bird.
❤❤❤ strike for gold ❤❤❤
Barbara stanwyke beautiful at least she wasn't lost in a big valley
She owned the tv series of The Big Valley as head of the largest ranch in the Stockton CA valley. Great series to watch.
I know it's just a movie, but greed will never get you anywhere, or anything that's worth having. She sure acted her roll 100%
Barbara Stanwych !
Boy, these people sure can see good in the dark! 🤗
Where's Ward Bond?
Ward Bond passed on Nov 5 1960 mid way in the 4th season of a massive heart attack
Oh thanks, I didn't realise that.
The same man who wrote the theme music for this show also wrote the main title.music.for the movie " The Jay hawkers," For some reason he got away with Useing the movie title music for this show.
Came here after a reference in 'The Florida Man'
I wanna travel back in time and do Maude on a bear skin rug under the stars
I'm looking for a recording of the theme song, one with the vocal track.
kerrgal unaware there was a song.Its great to see one of my fav people when he was young.Refer to Barney,aka Michael Burns one of the Shiloh boys,along with Mike Sarrazin,Jan Vincent,Harrison Ford,Don Stroud,Paul Peterson n James Caan.Fav for ever movie.Its maddening I cannot get sound on all of these episodes though.The series aired b4 my time n it's good to catch up.
Robert Horton got to kiss Barbara Stanwyck
whts a woman who owns the BIG VALLEY ranch doing on a wagon train? ")
She had to get to Stockton, California somehow to buy that ranch!
Taking a hiatus, I reckon Mr. James of the Wild West!
@@actionsub Well, Silas had dinner waiting
There is nothing wrong with Barbara Stanwyck !
Not at all: she was the real deal.
Would you happen to have the other Wagon Train episodes with her in them? If you do would you mind uploading them for me
Melissa Cox I agree that this is absolutely the worst Wagon Train that I have ever seen..... terrible story, horrible props.....just awful.....they could have done better.

maud is everything that is bad in the female stereotype - makes it impossible to like her, or even care what happens to her
Mrs Barclay would not have been impressed.
Good acting, She played the gold digger really well. although it is completely opposite of her real personality. she is headstrong and strong willed, but not wicked like the woman in the story.
i dont know what gets people into more trouble between sex and greed !!
en español por favor
maude got wood alright.
Forgive and thanks for forgiving the consequences of mentioning my wrongfa words thanks
The level of mansplaining that Barbara Stanwyk had to slap down here is off the charts. The way she stood up to the condescension is magnificent.
A first class user, gold digger. She would have done anything just to put her hands on some gold.
Looks like she found herself another Yes man. All because of Greed! All day long Yahoo 😅
Poor Flint, havinng to kiss Maude, how awful.

Back then, men were men, women were women. What has become to this country nowadays?
Cheesemo
Remember the Twilight Zone episode " On Thursday we leave for home " this sort of reminds me of it.
I've got a ranch, 3 sons, 1 daughter, and it's not that far from Ben Cartwright , he has 3 sons , and a big ranch.too.
I saw a Lone Ranger episode with an Indian named.Red Coud.
Im sorry but this is the worst epi of Wagon Train EVER!
GeorgeBonez no Barney to lighten things up.
