I've watched this movie at least 3 times
|
I grew up on "B" westerns on LA's channel 11.
The plots became formulaic after a while?
As when the Italian westerns with Clint Eastwood came out,
I had thought they just couldn't do anything new in a western.
This one put a cork in that.
The book was first published in 1918.
There have been several cowboy bands named after this novel.
Loren Zane Grey has resurrected Lassiter in a continuation
of his father's work ( and was successful doing it because this is a classic).[[ASIN:0671607804 Lassiter Gold]]
It stands as characteristic " American Literature" as a culture:
like Jazz. The honorable warrior and his noble love are strains of literature
going back in time to the Greeks. The ability to capture
that feeling in a movie is very rare. This one does it!
I'm sure I'll watch it again:
that seems to be the test of quality.
It is worth watching again. |
