Ni som sett filmen
Shane (1953) eller
Mannen från vidderna som den kallas på svenska har lite kul att läsa här:

Det finns en artikelseri i NY Times där kända regissörer får välja en film som de diskuterar.
Här har Woody Allen valt filmen
Shane. Det är rätt kul att läsa, för Allen tycker verkligen att Shane är ett oöverträffat poetiskt mästerverk!
Citat:
Mr. Allen remembered enjoying "Shane" from the first time he saw it, but he said his appreciation had deepened over the years. "I've seen it many, many times," he said. "Certainly more than 20. I've also taken people to see it, people who tell me that they can't stand westerns. Because it's more than a western. It's a fine movie. Oh, there are a couple of weaker spots in it, but they are so minor and forgivable, and what's great about it is so wonderful, that you'd really have to be carping to be annoyed at them. To this day, if it was on television this week and I happened to be tuning through the channels, I would stop and see it. I am always riveted."
Mr. Allen frequently describes "Shane" as a lovely film, or a beautiful one, and praises it for its poetry and elegant flow, words not normally associated with westerns.
Själv var jag inte så förtjust i Shane, jag tyckte den var lam och tillrättalagd.
Kanske får ge den en ny chans..
