I re-watched a movie Friday night that I hadn't watched in a while. You know, Kurt Russell sometimes get lumped in with the "action stars" because of all the films he makes in that genre, and people forget what an incredibly talented actor he really is. Bad Lieutenant was good, Training Day was fabulous...but if you want to see a really great actor portraying a really bad cop, check out Dark Blue.

Paint Your Wagon.....

People from all over the world make a small community.....and " anyone voting against bringing prostitution to camp is a traitor to his country "!

Mud can make you a prisoner,
the plains can bake you dry,
snow can burn your eyes,
but only people make you cry.

Where am I going? I don't know.
When will I get there I ain't certain.
All I know is I am on my way.

Re-watched How the West Was Won today. I can still remember seeing it on the Cinerama screen when I was eight years old. Wildly un-PC now, with its talk of winning the land from "primitive man", etc., but still quite a spectacle. (Look for brief appearances by a couple of young, uncredited actors; Lee Van Cleef as one of Walter Brennan's river pirate crew, and Harry Dean Stanton as one of Eli "Gant" Wallach's henchmen in the final sequence.) The last scene during Spencer Tracy's voice-over, demonstrating the great success of the westward movement by showing an aerial view of cars speeding over a spiderweb of highways and cloverleafs in what was probably Los Angeles seems sadly ironic, in a way...particularly after the spectacular scenes of unspoiled nature throughout the rest of the film.
