Sometimes an older movie works for me, and sometimes it doesn’t. I’ll admit that it’s quite possible that a film doesn’t work just because I’m not in the mood for it. We didn’t finish this one. It just didn’t stir our interest, despite starring people like Jack Elam, Dean Jagger, Ed Begley, Jay C. Flippen, Louise Latham, Inger Stevens, and Gary Lockwood, the same year he was in 2001: A Space Odyssey. There was also an appearance by one of my favorite character actors, John “by yimini!” Qualen. He always played intense Swedish characters with thick accents. He was actually Canadian, and the accent was totally put on.
