3:10 to Yuma (2007)

What a great movie, with such precise dialogue. I wonder how much it has in common with the Elmore Leonard short story and the 1957 film. Here you have exchanges that always keep the endgame in sight, but always skirt to the side of it. And you also have character changes that turn on moral revelations that may or may not be just for the hell of it, but are successful, I think, because of that.
