Handlung
WUSSTEST DU SCHON:
- WissenswertesFinal film of Richard Martin (Quijano).
- PatzerMary Hoag pulls a Winchester 1894 rifle from behind the bar, which won't be made for another 21 years at least. However, it is similar to other Winchester lever action rifles of the era in general looks. All of the handguns appear to be Colt Single Action Army revolvers which began in 1873. While it is possible for some to be there, it is doubtful that everyone would have one as they are new and guns were expensive for people then.

Dipper: [narrating] This man came along the trail one Sunday morning in '73, taking it slow and easy, keeping his eyes open and his gun hand ready. He came from nowhere, I guess. Anyhow, he never said from where and we never asked. He was going to stop off in Purgatory, to make his stand like he lived - alone. This is Number One. He called himself Sabin.

The comedic elements work pretty well in this film, especially when Richard Martin shows up in the movie, playing a Mexican. The serious elements..... well, I'm sure they're there, I just can't take any of it particularly seriously when we don't see any gunfights, just people knocking memorials into the ground, while the good townfolk who want Craig to shoot a cripple mock him for cowardice.
Perhaps it has something to do with the fisheying of he image whenever cinematographer John Nickolaus moves the camera. Perhaps it's all a burlesque of the psychological and symbol-laden A westerns that the 1950s threw up occasionally. That would explain why they decided to call the place Purgatory, when the two towns that actually bear the name are in New England.
