Director: Peckinpah

Review

peckinpah is an action director, for me it’s really that simple. outside of the title sequence – which is interesting for its use of time and editing – the best parts of the film are the two action sequences. the heist sequences is great for its building tension and cross-cutting and the final shootout sequence is also great. the space between is serviceable, but nothing fantastic. ali macgraw is dead sexy and kind of a katharine ross look alike.
