Great Film: The Way of the Gun
Sam Peckinpah is Looking Up Smiling
"Way of the Gun" is the best western to come down that
perverbial turnpike in a great while. Like the aging cynical
worn out outlaws in Peckinpahs Wild Bunch, these modern
day anti-hero's whether Old or young realize that
sometimes life gives you that one chance. It is up to you to
seize it . whether its kidnapping your fortune or giving birth
to it we all soon realize that in the end we all come in the
same way & go out the same way the difference being on
how hard.
Although I know I am in the extreme minority "Way of the
Gun is a much more complete film than Usual Suspects it
is a metaphor for the careless way we lead our lives only
realizing that the one most innocent and beautiful thing is
life it self. Bravo Christopher a fine film indeed!!!
