favorite American Western ever made
Drive-In Massacre - wrote on 05/22/11
I've just finished watching this for the first time. I should give this another viewing very shortly, but as of right now - still, not fully developed on how I feel about it - this is my favorite American Western ever made.
Yes, more than The Searchers, Shane, Unforgiven, etc. It doesn't contain all the hokey-ness that those films do, and as far as modern westerns go, or any other film of that matter, it is too unique and creative and thorough in its world to forget. So original and adventurous.
I mean Johnny Depp, Lance Henrickson, Crispin Glover, Robert Mitchum, John Hurt, Gabriel Byrne, Iggy Pop, etc. and of course, the lone guitar score by Neil Young, only a guy Jarmusch could think up a cast and crew like that.
