Two works of Literature, “The Bride Comes to Yellow Sky”, the short story, and “The Westerner”, the film, try to convey the civilization of the old west, which allows for settlement and development of traditional American values, which are associated with honest and hard working people in the West Texas frontier. Although, one of these works does a better job of conveying overall theme.
Between “The Bride comes to Yellow Sky” and “The Westerner”, I would say that “The Westerner did a better job of civilizing on the Western frontier. Throughout the film, it seemed as they were always arguing with each other, but in the end Jane Ellen Mathews, and Carl Hardin became friends.
