A bit of a slow goer but if you like your western that way, this one is for you!
I see folks here saying there's no plot, it's talky or it's an acid western. I would say no to all of those. This is a hangout western for sure but there is a decent plot.
Add to it some top-shelf camera work and a murderer's row cast. Margot Kidder, the same year as Superman's release, is stunning. Christoper Walken playing it straight. He's pretty great as the straight-as-an-arrow gentleman gunslinger in a Bolero hat. A Martinez with his shirt off and he's a specimen. The real lead of the film is Geoffrey Lewis - during the time he was in nearly every Eastwood movie released - who steals the film from everyone with his quirky, sunburned bad man. It was a treat to see him given so much screen time.
