The Missouri Breaks

The Missouri Breaks is a 1976 western film directed by Arthur Penn and starring Marlon Brando and Jack Nicholson. Harry Dean Stanton is also in this. John Williams composed the music. I watched it on Amazon Prime.

Cinapse calls it " the greatest cult film to never find its cult." Slant Magazine calls it a "big, eccentric film". Rotten Tomatoes has a consensus critics score of 81%.

    ...the greatest cult film to never find its cult. Now that's a statement.

    I don't know the movie. But Jack Nicholson always has such a wonderfully insane look, I love it! ;-DD
    Happy weekend!

      He's able to carry a wide variety of roles, though he's never a particular draw for me.

    I´m not into Western movies, but the quote by Cinapse sounds very great!

    I'm really not a western fan. However, since I have Prime, I know I can watch it if the mood strikes me.

      It's not a traditional western. I'm not sure if that's a plus or minus for somebody who doesn't tend to watch westerns...

    ... I'm sure we have watched this film.
    Jack Nicholson has been in some good films.

    All the best Jan
