Could someone pop over to Salon.com and read Charles Taylors review of "Open Range?"
I haven't seen the film, but I intend to... I'm a fan of new westerns.. I thought Silverado was fun, and I gutted my way through "All the Pretty Horses" because I loved the book (though Billy Bob mangled it in movie form... and needlessly so. Cormack McCarthy's novel is practically a script... he writes in a Hemingway-esque style that's pure dialog... everything on the page should translate directly to the screen ) .
After you've read that review, come back and tell me who deserves more the label "self important twit:"
Costner, Taylor, or me?
'Cause for some reason, that guys reviews just piss me off... I don't know if it's his artsy high-horse, or what exactly, but he just sets my teeth on edge.
