Hollywoods ensomste menn; Randolph Scott og Joel McCrea. Finnes det noe mer poetisk på film enn den ville vestens død?

Honestly don't have a lot to say about this one. It's still early in Peckinpahs career and that's very apparent as this feel much more as an average 60s western than a Peckinpah western. It's fine
