Reliving the movie each time is like watching it for the first time. Another one is the Man without a Star and He died with his boots on.

Especially the chiricahua apache language dialog. The Missing was underrated in being very authentic. Especially the chiricahua apache language dialog.

Revolvers were scoured from museums or duplicated from museum pieces. The prop people did their homework in this piece...even better than Tombstone, altho the lingo in Tombstone is still unmatched.

Jack Nicholson, Harry Dean Stanton and Randy Quaid are believable as the good-natured, likeable horse thieves who unfortunately catch the attention of a psychopathic 'Regulator' played with horror and also great comedy by Marlon Brando. The acting, scenery and dialogue are superb. A hugely underrated film. If you haven't seen it, get it, get a beer and enjoy. "The Missouri Breaks"!!!
