Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is a good solid movie with occasional 'gems in the rock', particularly the development of the loving relationship that slowly builds up between warden John Flinders ( James Caan) and the widow McVale (Rachel Ticotin), whose first husband had gone to the gallows, for murder.
The setting is Arizona Territory 1910, as the West was 'a changin,' and there is even an early scene of a motor car in this otherwise conventional western.
If you want sex scenes and plenty of foul language, then don't bother with this movie. However if you want to watch a good western with fine acting by Caan and Ticotin in particular, then this is worthwhile. Personally, I think the slow inter personal development between warden and widow makes this flick far more interesting than watching some mad bedroom romp and is probably far truer to the the way the sexes related to each other in that early period of the 20th century.
The 'baddy,'Mike Sullivan, is played by David Carradine, who looks remarkably like Jason Robards, and unlike his old mate, the warden, is a thoroughly unredeemed villain.
Fine supporting performances come from Brian Dennehy, and the child actress, Gisela Sanchez, who convincingly looks like her screen mother.
This film provides good family viewing with, some nice horse flesh a few shoot-outs-well it wouldn't be a western without those would it?
