The Gunfighter - where does this rank for you among the greats?

Rewatched this the other day and this has to be one of my favorite, not just Westerns, but films period. I originally came across this on TV a long time ago and later realized this was the song Dylan was singing about in “Brownsville Girl”.

I love that it doesn’t have a lot of action but is mostly a study of a character coming to grips with his past and the life he has chosen. Karl Malden is great as usual and Peck plays the role beautifully. His quiet demeanor and acting behind the eyes really lends itself to the “legend” that is built around Jimmy Ringo.

Are you a fan of this film and where does it rank for you among your favorite Westerns or just films in general?

What is the first film you remember seeing in the cinema?

I was born in 93, so the earliest film I can remember seeing in the cinema is probably Flubber with Robin Williams or George of The Jungle with Brendan Fraser. Space Jam I’m almost positive I saw in theaters but that might have been on VHS. It’s so strange how just seeing a movie poster/trailer can bring back the memory of something you haven’t thought about in so long. What is the first film you remember seeing in the cinema?

Edited: Hercules too, how could I have forgotten? I had those collectible plates from McDonalds.

Favorite Brosnan Era Action Sequence?

There’s so many great action sequences to choose from (tank chase through the streets, boat chase on the Thames, etc.) but this one is probably my favorite. It’s so much fun and the parking garage is a cool new setting that I don’t believe had been done before in a Bond film (please correct me if I’m wrong) and really one of my favorite sequences of TND. What is your favorite sequence from the Brosnan films?

Can be what scores you think are the best, or just your personal favorites.

For me:

Rudy (Jerry Goldsmith)
Cinema Paradiso (Ennio Morricone)
ET (John Williams)

It’s so hard to pick from John Williams’ work, but ET is probably the one I would pick as the most emotionally satisfying and heightening.

Some honorable mentions: Cider House Rules (Rachel Portman), Blade Runner (Vangelis), Inception (Hans Zimmer)

I have an aunt who every times she calls goes on and on talking about herself, her kids, and giving so much detail about things nobody would have any interest in that I’m honestly baffled she lacks so much self awareness. We avoid answering the phone sometimes because we know it will turn into a gabfest that is focused primarily on her, with a seemingly reluctant, “what’s going on with you?” after she finally realizes she has not once talked about anything other than herself. What exactly is the psychology behind this? Is it all insecurity based or is she just narcissistic and seemingly unaware?
