So, you want only one or two flavors? - Enophile 10:49:34 12/17/07 (1)
They already made High Noon, 3:10 to Yuma, Spartacus, 300, and The Shootist.

Does it always have to end in a shoot-out?

NCfOM rewards on so many levels. The main theme is retained in almost every interaction that Sheriff Bell has, even down to his conversations while sharing cofee with other law enforcement officers. If you edited the flick down to just those scenes, you'd still get a cohesive thematic story line that would make sense and ties in perfectly to the final scene.

His comments at the end of the movie relate directly to every scene in the whole film. I was absolutely amazed at how well constructed the movie was.

We could make a list of all the ways we were shown Sheriff Bell's world disappearing...I can't hink of any fat to trim. Really a solidly built film.

I don't think the violence or plotline in the film was a "set up" for a showdown, so that may be where we part ways in our reaction to the movie.

  us up for a showdown.
  The story he told about the sheriff, porch, and horses.
  That's one.
