Return to Snowy River.....not so much.
Return to Snowy River wasn't as good, but I still enjoyed that one too. While I like Brian Dennehy in the 2nd, Kirk Douglas left a impact for me in the first. I thought the soundtrack was amazing in both of them.
No one has mentioned the more modern Westerns - with a twist. .... I loved the Firefly TV series, and I enjoyed Cowboys and Aliens too.
What is sad is all these amazing westerns are out there, yet there are so few of them available on Instant Viewing on Netflix or Amazon Prime. I have had many of these westerns in my queue for years waiting for them to become available. (My "boring old movies" get bumped to the bottom of the DVD queue in favor of new releases for our movie night.)
I read recipes the same way I read science fiction. I get to the end and I think, "Well, that’s not going to happen."
