The Sons of Katie Elder (1965)

The Sons of Katie Elder takes its time. So much so, that I imagined the four Elder brothers might just talk their way through this picture. Midway into the picture, the shooting starts and by the end the action turns into the expected Western, gun blazing finale. At that point, I actually missed all the talk; all of that spacious time.
