Review of Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid (1973) by Tom H — 09 Dec 2007
In Peckinpah's farewell to the western, we see his trademark attention to detail, the appearance of every western character actor still living, a metronome pace that doesn't speed up for anybody, and a complimentary score from Bob Dylan that brings to mind movie soundtracks like "Gunfight at the O.
K. Corral" and "High Noon." Ultimately, this movie says more about the 1970s than the 1880s. It was the beginning of the end for an American Master.
