A Very Good Western movie

[senior chef]

If you enjoy good westerns as much as I, then I have one for you.
"Open Range" starring Kevin Costner and Robert Duvall.
A very good story about two peaceful men in the 1880's who run cattle on the open range when they run afoul of a big rancher who thinks he can dictate where men can free range cattle on public lands.
One heck of an ending.

A Very Good Western movie​

It certainly is

Just watched it again last week

Duvall at his very best

the gunplay wasn't so over involved
But when those scenes happened, seemed quite realistic

Open Range is absolutely one of the best movies ever! I wish it would come out on blu-ray dvd; the dvd we do have of it has an extra disc of bonus material, had a cool part of the blessing that the film company got from the native nation in the area where they filmed (in Canada IIRC); it was foggy and some wild horses came walking up out of the fog, really cool. (I tried finding that on YouTube but couldn't.)

John Wayne's last film, "The Shootist" was a good one for me. Great cast.

Yes, unlike the old days, relatively few westerns are made any more.
One of the things I like about "Open Range" is that it has an excellently written story line and it has a great moral theme.
