Leo, Let's not be talkin' about those old time actors, I grew up watchin' those folks!
With the disastrous performance of Michael Cimino's Heaven's Gate in 1980, nobody in Hollyweird wanted to touch the Western genre. All of that changed in 1985 with Lawrence Kasdan's Silverado and Clint Eastwood's Pale Rider. Those two movies really gave the Western a much needed revival, and in the period between 1985 and 1993, we saw some pretty dang good Westerns.I've seen bits and pieces of Once Upon a Texas Train, and it's a dandy!
Somebody just had to do it...mention Heaven's Gate. Kinda like Kevin Costner starring in an Ed Wood production of an L. Ron Hubbard screenplay...
