:fresh: [color=#ff8c00]This is an excellent film, Alan Ladd is very convinciing as Shane, a man with no roots, mysterious who fascinated a whole family and helped it to defeat the man who threatened their land.[/color].

[color=#ff8c00]Jack Palance is excellent as the gun fighter, he had an enourmous charater to threaten and to shoot a gun, pitty, his role was very short.[/color].

[color=#ff8c00]The score, the performances, the script, the scenes, the art direction and George Stevens' touch makes this film a masterpiece. A western that joins the list of the best westerns ever done.[/color].
