The Sacketts (1979)
Classic western
30 January 2024
Possibly one of the last westerns made when the story was more important than the special effects.
Based on Louis L'Amour's "The Daybreakers" and "Sackett", there are a few revisions for expedience sake, but a good movie with some notable quotes.
It's hard to not like Ben Johnson playing an old man. He is one of several real cowboys in the show.
The good guys do what needs done, even giving the bad guys time to rethink their choices.
It does run a bit long, the vhs was 2 cassettes, but it was a 2 part tv movie.
If you like the characters, the L'Amour Sackett series is probably up your alley.
