So underrated 'anti-western'!
This seems to be a film that you either love or hate, and I happen to be of the former. Personally, I saw a great script elevated to a terrific movie by two super performances: Brando's somewhat bizarre turn (was he Irish?) as Clayton was very effective, but the real star was Nicholson who gave a subtle, yet potent, turn as Logan. I can't see how he was ignored (or indeed how the entire movie was) by Oscar in a year when Sly Stallone - good as he was - picked up a nomination for Best Actor. Oh well, I appreciate you, Jack...
And also, is this the only ever 'anti-western' (an expression that's been used to describe it a couple of times)?
