Honky1974, yep. i've got good taste!!

;p

I saw Let Him Have It when I came out, and have been a "fan" of Christopher Eccleston ever since. What a brilliant actor, his performance gave me chills. Well, he got me watching Doctor Who anyway!

It changed my thinking about capital punishment (along with Dance With A Stranger) and was overjoyed when they finally pardoned him.... 46 years after being murdered by the state...

Anyway... cheers

Appaloosa,

I would have killed to be on the fringe of a Peckinpah set, I think those guys were having way too much fun..

I love Chill Wills line describing a whore..."she got a tit on her...I'd like to see that thing filled full of tequilla" but it leaves you wondering if she only had one..

I'm not sure but I think Kris shoots the same actor in about three seperate scenes...guy looks like been to bad make up or a horse face punted him...

hellifiknow,
yeah Peckinpah made the ..."guy gets shot on horse an falls off with his leg caught on the stirrup an gets dragged along in slow motion".....scenes.....he was kool.....well at least Kristofferson dint sing .......
