Review of Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid (1973) by Troy D — 30 Mar 2016

Unforunately, Sam Peckinpah never got to polish a definitive cut, but he did make a preview cut that was posthumously released as the "Turner Preview Version." It's the one to watch and while it's still uneven, there's some great stuff in there.

Kristofferson and Coburn are excellent, as are most of the character parts - and Slim Pickens' scene by the river is perhaps the best thing Peckinpah's ever done.
