Title: GOOD old fashioned Western!
Review: Let me say this right off the bat. The main reason to watch this movie is Robert ("The Great Santini") Duvall! His performance in this movie is worth three times the price of admission. He goes from being a gentle father figure in one scene to a fearsome arbiter of frontier justice in the next. The plot is simple: a few cowboys go into town not looking for trouble and run into a corrupt cattle baron that doesn't want them around. Well no one tells Boss Spearman (Duvall) where he can or can't go, "That just sticks in his craw!" Kevin Costner and the always beautiful Annette Benning give good solid performances in supporting roles. The cinematogrophy also deserves special mention as the shots of the country side are beautiful to behold.
