3:10 to Yuma

There are times in life when a Ben Wade redeems himself. There are times when a Dan Evans proves what his heart is really all about. There are times when Russell Crowe exceeds my expectations (unlike in American Gangster). There are times when Christian Bale performs as well as any actor I can remember in a long time. There are times when Westerns are "yehaw, bang 'em up shoot 'em up" goofy, mediocre stories. There are times when Westerns go beyond that and touch a thread in the stomach. This Western was the latter. I don't buy many DVDs. I may buy this one. 5 of 5. Joe
