   Yes siree, Open Range is a very good Western :)   
      
   I admire the way they did the shootout at the end because it did not present   
   the gunfighters as   
   these emotionless, calm and cool "shootists."   
      
   Bullets are flying everywhere with the vast majority of them NOT hitting their   
   mark. No one has   
   nerves of steel in such situations and I'm sure most of them shook like leaves   
   throughout.   
      
   The scenery is glorious, as is de rigeur for a Western. The acting is mostly   
   understated, which is   
   in my opinion more realistic. Robert Duvall is pretty much like Augustus   
   McCray in Lonesome Dove.   
      
   Most of it was filmed in the same places they shot Unforgiven and Legends of   
   the Fall. The gorgeous   
   set of the town site is on the Nakota Indian reservation, about 50 miles west   
   of Calgary, right on   
   the very edge of the foothills and the Rockies.   
      
   You don't want to miss this one! :)
