If I'm not mistaken it's one of Hackman's last films. He and Clint are absolutely brilliant in it. As is Morgan Freeman. God damn. Now I want to watch it again.
Hackman kept acting into the early '00s

Tombstone
High Noon
True Grit (Coens)
Butch Cassidy
Young Guns 2
Blazing Saddles

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I know. But I typed and posted my post before I saw your apology post. What was I supposed to do? Just DELETE my post? I didn't get over 50,000 posts on this message board by deleting posts, weaser.

The modern west presents terrific and rare opportunity for anyone willing to work a little harder to get ahead. Plus there's none of the hyper-intellectualism of the NE or PacNW, nor the traffic or over-abundance of built environment. People who are able to think easily outside of the predominant right/left schism. Plus there's amazing whiskey and a surprising amount of strong, independent women. It's a dream-state realized for people like me.
None of that is at all what I'm talking about though. You think Sam Shepherd had any of that in mind when he wrote a play?
