yeah a cartoon

but has all the visceral juices of a true romance tale IOW where the good guy overcomes overall odds.. internal and external.. and what has made humans so dominant.. our altruism .. not our belligerence..

This is the type of tale that made so may great Westerns when I was a kid



a great allegory

My favourite 3 movie scenes from 3 of my favourite movie are:

1. Al Pacino - Scent of a Woman - the final assembly scene .

2. A few good men. - "You can't handle the truth" - Court Martial scene.

3. Where Eagles Dare - "we have just uncovered a plot to assassinate the Fuhrer....Preposterous "

Cheers
