But for old times' sake, you should like it just the same. You should thrill as Errol Flynn bravadoes to his inevitable victory, you should gnash your teeth when the bad man murders a respectable rancher in cold blood, and you should swell with patriotic pride as the covered wagons wind into the sunset...
