I can see why Scorsese likes it. An awesome movie + wonderful soundtrack/score.
She’s a high ridin’ woman with a whip,
She’s a woman that all men desire,
But there’s no man can tame her
That’s why they name her
The high ridin’ woman with a whip.
She commands and men obey
They’re just putty in her hands, so they say,
When she rides and the wind is in her hair,
She has eyes full of life, full of fire.

Great direction, acting and music, and the story did not hook me in even the tiniest way. Eighty minutes of Barbara Stanwyck riding a horse would have entertained me as much. Feeling guilty about not enjoying it "enough." 10 months ago
