3:10 To Yuma

I watched last night, the new movie "3:10 To Yuma." The cover said the best western since Unforgiven. It was a decent movie, but I would not go so far as to compare it with movies like "Unforgiven" or "Tombstone."

It is sad that we see less and less movies that reflect the old west or movies that have those old rugged values and perhaps a little valor and good guy verses bad guy stuff. So often the movies we see today, the good vs bad is all kinda blended together and everything is kinda grey?

It is sad the culture we find our young people in also. So many of them only have an interest in what is most contemporary. We don't expose our kids to enough things of old to give them some kind of values besides the newest thing. I just find that sad.

We need some more John Waynes, Jimmy Stewarts, Henry Fondas and all the others!

God Speed,

Bruce

I agree, the movie was good but not excellent. I also agree about the appreciate of old things. I personally love history. Blessings!
