The casting of Russell Crowe may have been the only mistake (he seems to be out of his element and uncomfortable in this role) in what will become a classic Western film. Christian Bale stars in this sad and heroic story, and this will hopefully start a trend in the movie business, the production of westerns. With horses and shootouts, you cannot go wrong.
