Except that the story was nothing but an ego vehicle for Wayne--in a word, flat. It was sort of like Jimmy Carter winning the Nobel Peace Prize for doing what the prize awarders demanded that had nothing to do with peace. But on the other hand, the Coens' are doing it, so who knows.

Well considering how they did with the transition of book to big screen in regards to "No Country" I'm perfectly fine with any book to movie transition they decide to do at the moment.
