If ever a film was so overlooked, this is probably the best film you never saw. During a time when the western genre was filled with action,Fonda slipped this film in.It is a story about relationships and values that few films, this day have(they make way too many movies anyway). Beautifully photographed(eye candy as some would say)by Vilmos Zsigmund(Easy Rider,Sugarland Express),and a score to that will hypnotize(Bruse Langhorne-the one man band).A cast of strong stalwart performers,(Warren Oates,Verna Bloom,Severn Darden) who are actually into their parts,round out this film.
