I haven't seen it in years, at least not all the way through. Really a wonderful movie, so well made. Beautiful. Read a review on the BD release, and it was reverential, as it should have been. The review helped me focus on things I might have ignored, after having seen it so many times. To me, the editing (especially the sound design) ahead of its time. The scene where Jack Palance walks into the saloon-he disappears and reappears-was like a new wave device. I could believe this movie was from 1951 (released in 53). I recommend it, passionately.

Not to mention the Grand Tetons, which loom in the background of many major scenes. Best Picture Oscar for cinematography. When I first saw this movie as a child back in the 1950s, those mountains were the one thing that really haunted me, and I finally realized a dream of going to Jackson a few years ago to see them for real. There's another surreal scene where Shane is watching Wilson (Palance) dismount from his horse, take a drink of water, and then he eerily climbs back on his horse BACKWARDS, but it's really just the dismount scene run in reverse. One of my top-10 movies of all time.
