I'm giving it to LJ even though he got the title wrong. Nonetheless, I thought this quote would have lasted through a few more posts. Damn!
My all time fav Westerns:
1.) The Wild Bunch
2.) Once Upon a Time in the West
3.) Unforgiven
4.) The Good The Bad And The Ugly
Almost all the rest fall under the genre of "Oater" and sub-genre "Horse Opera"
“In a world whose absurdity appears to be so impenetrable, we simply must reach a greater degree of understanding among us, a greater sincerity.”
I never managed to watch OUATITW but was aware that Once Upon a Time in America was partly an homage to the western. So last year I got the western and enjoyed spotting some of the parallels in the early scenes - and then became totally bored with the banal harmonica crap dubbed into every five seconds and all the people walking around glowering meaningfully at each other. Bad acting, bad writing and bad movie - excruciatingly boring. Not a patch on Unforgiven which, as all rational people know is the eternally to be best western ever made.

Correct Big RR...
I really thought this would be a slam dunk for oldr...(since it's the one he keeps guessing)
Of course though, then he would have immediately have followed up with another quote from Das Boot, since that's apparently the only film he's ever seen...
I'd give each one of 'em a stick and, one for each one of 'em, then I'd say, 'You break that.' Course they could real easy. Then I'd say, 'Tie them sticks in a bundle and try to break that.' Course they couldn't. Then I'd say, "That bundle... that's family.
