Quirky quixotic revisionist western from '71-72

An odd, uneven and off-beat western from '71-72 that most downbeat of hippie years - incidentally coinciding with the year the modern-western, 'Pocket Money' also starring good-looking blue-eyed American superstar, Paul Newman was released. Bleak but playful and full of quirky scenarios and cameos with a cine-literate script although without the surrealism of the Italian western genre. The night-time scene when Bean travels to the theatre by train dressed in a top-hat and tails and is subsequently mugged is lyrical and timeless; while the scene when Bean accompanied by his Mexican wife Maria-Elena, played by Victoria Principal surveys the mellow golden-brown Arizonan prairieland vistas has a compelling purity of vision. The early-'70s were pioneering years and stood often for intelligent cinema. It reveals just how multi-faceted Newman's acting style was.

A very good story.

I enjoyed very much this tale of the judge Roy Bean.A story about law and justice near the Pecos River: a former outlaw who decides to build a town where the bads guys and the outlaws will be punished.But also a romantic man who has fallen in love with an actress Lily Langtry. who is writing her letters and once tried to meet her in San Antonio. A great Paul Newman who plays very well the role of Judge Roy Bean and in this cast we have goods actors such as Anthony Perkins, Ned Beatty,Matt Clark , Jim Burk and Jim McKinney, and good actresses such as Victoria Principal, Jacqueline Bisset and Ava Gardner.
