Pete - in a post below, you said you think this is one of the all-time
great westerns. Well, I tried to watch it a while back, and I could
not. Boring, boring, boring! The best scene is the opening scene,
where Jack Elam traps the fly in his pistol barrel and cant figure out
what to do next. Absolutely classic!

For my money, Sam Peckinpah is the undisputed champ of the genre.
The Wild Bunch, Ballad of Cable Hogue, and Major Dundee (some also
include Ride the High Country) are just about the be-all and end-all
of westerns.

Mike.
