There are very few "bad Westerns,"to this old feller.
Seriously,how about Harry Dean's line"Not since that dog of mine put his tongue on the butter.".I have seen this epic 12-15 times since 1976.
I love it.I gave it a 10.I want to visit that remote area before I dieI best hurry.

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
Prior to
Dances with Wolves
(Kevin Costner, 1990) and
Unforgiven
(Clint Eastwood, 1992) in the early nineties, the Oscars almost uniformly ignored Westerns, which carried a cachet for non-prestige. I actually think that the best Western of 1976 was Eastwood's
The Outlaw Josey Wales
.

Yes,He was Irish and so was Brando, as is Nicholson.
I have seen this beautiful movie many times since 1976 and it merely renders any current films to beuseless.
