Joe Kidd (1971)

I suppose I had seen this Clint Eastwood oater before, but I didn't remember it -- and not surprising, since it was directed with a pedestrian touch by John Sturges and certainly it was not as accomplished as the series of westerns that Eastwood would direct himself in the following years.  Nice photography 'though.  The story is that land-baron Robert Duvall hires Eastwood to hunt down a renegade Mexican played by John Saxon with a silly accent; they fall out and that's about it until most of Duvall's men are dead.  There is however an extremely jolly bit of Eastwood hijacking a train and driving it through the local saloon -- you don't see that every day.
