“Open Range,” 5 July 2004 (2003), airplane. First, and a later addition, this is too big a film to see on a small screen. Even a good-sized TV made this better. Robert Duvall and Kevin Costner are fine in this slow moving western about independence, justice, and evil. Great gunfight, but too trite for its own good. And Duvall really is good. Costner’s relationship with Annette Benning doesn’t fit or work, but the movie is worth watching for Duvall’s total control, Costner’s delivery of trite lines, and Michael Jetter in his last role (he died of AIDS shortly thereafter) as a crotchety old livery stable keeper. The battle of settled ranchers versus open rangers but not quite that simple, even here.
