What I like? This is one I went to mainly to have a look at the titles. As it is kind of rude to leave right after them, I sat through the film. Very good indeed. Too much violence, yeah; one reason why I still like the old J. Lee Tompson version better. Bernard Hermann's music was a treat, as well (not that Elmer Bernstein is half bad). |
