A Flawed but Beautiful Western.

Boasting beautiful landscapes,a haunting tone and a great lead performance by Ray WInstone,The Propostion is one of the best modern Westerns around. The films biggest problem is that there are a few scenes in the movie that seem to go nowhere and take an extremly long time to be explained.But that fault is easily forgiven once you look at the gourgeous direction by John Hillcoat,showing breathaking landscapes and sudden bursts of very graphic violence,The Propsition is excellent in just bout every way, and would probably improve with multiple viewing.
