It’s hard to overstate how little I care. This story had already been brought to life in 1970 with Lee Marvin playing the lead character (under the direction of William Fraker), but this version presents Tom Selleck as Walsh, directed by Simon Wincer. It's adapted from a novel by Jack Schaefer—the same author who wrote Shane—and it’s essentially a mournful look at the end of the Old West and the disappearance of cowboys as a way to make a living. There isn't any idealized view of life on the range here; instead, the focus is on the gorgeous scenery (David Eggby really captured Alberta’s beauty) and the gentle connections between Walsh and Countess Martine (Isabella Rossellini), along with his companion Chet Rollins (Keith Carradine). Both actors deliver sensitive and impactful performances. The film does a great job of showing how difficult things were for cowboys, and how risky those towns felt as they passed through searching for consistent employment. Selleck is supported by a strong cast of character actors including William Devane, Rex Linn, James Gammon, Robert Carradine, William Sanderson, and Wallace Shawn. But, like anyone familiar with Selleck's work in Westerns already knows, he doesn’t need to rely on others—he feels completely comfortable in these kinds of movies. He brings a lot of masculinity and emotional depth to the role; it's an excellent performance. If you enjoy Westerns, there’s plenty here to appreciate. If you liked the original film with Marvin, chances are good you’ll like this one too, perhaps even more so. 8/10
