 In this western Pekinpa demonstrated sense of humour forgotten since the time of early works on TV. Robards is in the role of a gold-digger left by Martin and Johns to die in the desert. But he survived, found water in the desiccated source, opened an oasis of its kind for the thirsty travelers, and got rich in his way. Stephens is in the role of a slut trying to earn money in bed enough to forget about smelly fellows. 121 min. |
