Plots(1)
A former rough-rider must match his wits and wiles against a beautiful but tough woman, a drifting ex-mercenary, a young reckless cowboy and a gusty Pony Express rider in this turn-of-the-century tale of a grueling 700 mile race across the frozen mountain paths and sun parched deserts of the American Wild West. (Via Vision Entertainment)
Reviews (1)
Comedy, western, heavy melancholy, and surprising twists. But even though Hackman and Coburn work perfectly, I had a bit of a mess with the other characters, and random mood swings don't help much either. Moreover, when the finale is mainly determined by a few random cards, pleasant impressions turn bitter unnecessarily quickly. ()
