1:20:12
Again, the hero is impassive.
1:20:14
You'd expect Randolph Scott,
or John Wayne, or Gary Cooper
1:20:18
to react to this massacre.
It's pointless.
1:20:21
And here comes Consuelo,

1:21:40
No priest, and a corrupt sheriff.
1:21:42
It's the view from the coffin.
1:21:45
And here's Eastwood in a mine shaft,
rehearsing his gun hand
1:21:49
