		<description><![CDATA[[Originally published in Movietone News 51, August 1976] I was prepared—by Tom McGuane&#8217;s insipid earlier scripts and by Brando&#8217;s increasingly self-indulgent performances in recent years—to dislike The Missouri Breaks, and so was considerably surprised to find myself enjoying it. Now I&#8217;m just as surprised to find that I am relatively alone in having liked the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[[Originally published in Movietone News 52, October 1976] It isn&#8217;t too likely that a U.S. Senator would arrange the mass murder of several bands of Confederate renegades after their postwar surrender; less likely still that he would himself be present at the grisly deed; and least likely of all that the ex-Confederate officer charged with [...]]]></description>

We are given a place and a year —&#8221;Oregon, 1845,&#8221; stitched into a piece of homespun embroidery—and then dropped in the high desert to observe three frontier families ford a river. They wordlessly, almost morosely, march across, then take the opportunity to fill canteens, wash and check [...]]]></description>

It takes repeated viewings to root out—and become increasingly touched by and attached to—those special moments that make a film come together in a way that delivers aesthetic frisson and confirms cinematic greatness.
