Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid

This film is one arguably one of the greatest westerns ever made with a magnificent cast and terrific direction by Sam Peckinpah unfortunately its hard to say what is the best edition of this I personally before the 84 turner preview cut but the 2005 recut is still plenty good, what's for sure is that the studios original edit should be disregarded as a merciless hack job made to satisfy a studio that didn't understand the director or his work. As is it is the film is a beautiful idilic and quiet piece that helps show a world embroiled in violence and about two men who are trying to escape it in their own ways and instead find themselves drawn close and close to a showdown neither one wants.

1) Kubrick is amazing; you are wrong. 2) Eternal Sunshine is brilliant; you are wrong. 3) Colonel Blimp is disturbingly bad; you are wrong. 4) And if ANYONE is "generally mediocre" it's your boyfriend Scorsese. LOOOOVE YOU!

The weakest of the series of films, this final installment just seems to drag in it’s last half hour. Though I must say I have never been a fan of the books and maybe that weighed into my opinion of…  read review
