It's been a while since I sat and watched the whole thing. Now you've pequed my interest. I'll have to hunt down my copy and look again. By the way, did you notice the spurs? Yes, Nickelson nearly stole the movie from Fonda and Hopper. I have to wonder if Hopper knew this and killed him off early, but it's an important forshadowing so I guess it's necessary. Too bad they didn't beat Fonda instead. Would have loved to see Nickelson playing "Captain America", and using that madman Hopper as a foil. I never liked any of the Fondas, but American Movie Classics has been running "Twelve Angry Men" over and over this year, and the cast and script is great, even with Fonda playing God. Love those black and white films.

The music is great though isn't it? Really a classic western film. You know, one of my favorite westerns of all time is "Once Upon A Time In the West", but it's tragically flawed: the score has to be the worst ever in film history. I'd love to have a copy without music. If you haven't seen it, put it on the top of your list, and buy it.
