Mr. Wizard, I'm a teensy bit confused. Just read your link to Ebert's review of "McCabe and Mrs. Miller". Er, what are we discussing here? Well, whatever, I didn't see it but I was caught up with Ebert's idea that McCabe was a closet poet in a town that knew not poetry, while the only potential poet (Mrs. Miller) had long since ceased to care. What beautiful irony.
I put Warren Beatty on a par with Hunter and Hudson
