Buckshot Bear Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Been ages since we'd watched Broken Trail, Robert Duvall never fails to impress as an actor. Sad ending really and my wife teared up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocWard Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 I don’t think I’ve had the chance to ever watch the entire thing in one sitting. I guess I’ll have to do that now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trigger Mike Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 I also enjoyed it. A little different than a lot of westerns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sixgun Sheridan Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 One of the few westerns to ever tackle the issue of Chinese girls sold into slavery and prostitution in the US. In fact it might be the only one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rex M Rugers #6621 Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 The novel by Alan Geoffrion is a good read , also. Side note: Near the end of the movie , when Tom shoots a bad guy with his 66 , did you notice it has no front sight. Of course , I immediately pointed this out to my wife , who was not amused. Or impressed. Rex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckshot Bear Posted October 22, 2021 Author Share Posted October 22, 2021 Very interesting to delve a little deeper and to read about how its loosely based on a true story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
