dustdevil, remember the constant shots of the truck driver ? where is this truck driver headed ? could he be headed down the highway of life to run over kirk dare say ?
While it would have been better if the entire jail angle was tossed out, it's too charming and fun for me to really give a damn.
I've learned that the best - a lot of good - movies aren't always - necessarily - the most perfect.
I like it also
Well maybe not completely tossed out but it certainly would have done it a lot of good if handled with more logic, some logic at least. George Kennedy's character on the other hand... Was there any reason whatsoever for his character to be introduced in the movie? - Cause I honestly can't find it.If you agree - I agree.
We'll it makes it all the more noir-ish, I think all that would have been jettisoned with the color. In color it would have been more of a "Bad Day At Black Rock" vibe to it which would have worked also.
I would consider OUATIA, The Searchers, Rio Bravo and Ace in the Hole some of the best movies I've ever seen and all four are flawed to some degree. But that's me.
