Featured review
Screw the haters, this is a real fine Western
If you are a fan of classic Westerns, you'll find yourself glued to the screen enjoying every minute of this film.
Disclosure: I am 62 years old as I write this, so I've seen 'em all. And watching this one, I couldn't help feel like it was 1967, or thereabouts, what with the steady camera-work, the superb cinematography capturing all the dusty glory of New Mexico, U.S.A.
And the soundtrack! Not some canned muzak, not some minimalist guitar scratchings, but a full-blown beauty of a musical composition that took me right back to the Spaghetti classics.
Now, this won't win an Oscar, but dang if it didn't make my Friday night popcorn and beer movie night.
"In A Valley of Violence" is a total winner. p.s....the dog is an unbelievably good actor.
