POSSE (Theatrical Release USA 1975)

 Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.1|5.0 Starsìììì

Posse—western film—presents nothing new. The movie gives a good look at Kirk Douglas both as an acting talent and as a director. Despite the film’s age, it earns a watch. The movie did not retire to just an academic study. It has retained its entertainment value.
