As an example of another New Hollywood Western, I did enjoy this, and almost gave it five stars, but it wasn't as tight a story or as lyrical as
Bonnie & Clyde or
The Searchers. For me, the timing of watching this as particularly apt, given I'm about to go to the Sundance Film Festival (named by Robert Redford for his character in the film). Steve McQueen was droll and fun to watch, but I didn't warm to Robert Redford's character.
