3:10 To Yuma

Hollywood has put its cowboy hat back on. 3:10 to Yuma, originally a short story and now has two movie versions out, was my first full exposure to a westerm movie. Before tonight, the closest I got was City Slickers, and I doubt that counts. With a star cast, 3:10 to Yuma has successfully put western films back in the public light. The movie has western film fans out in the theaters as well as appealing to the younger audience.

Blood Diamond also made it in my schedule this weekend. Oddly enough, 3:10 to Yuma and Blood Diamond have a huge parallel in story lines.

I want to see that movie!! Have you seen Tombstone (the movie, not pizza)? It has Kurt Russel and Val Kilmer; it is a good western movie.

No, I haven't seen Tombstone. I'll have to check that out. I do like the pizza too, but Tony's my favorite frozen pizza.
