Review of 'Doc'

'Doc' (1971)
3/10
Doc Needs to Be Cured *
2 October 2010
Warning: Spoilers
Very slow, brooding peace. You often wonder where the slow plot is going to.

Stacy Keach stars as the legendary Doc. Faye Dunaway, is a young Katie Elder, who he wins in a card game. She kisses him in the mouth despite his tuberculosis. Didn't the audience flinch at that?

He introduces a young guy to shooting. The 18 year old goes on to gun down a man who annoyed him.

There is the usual shoot out at the end with the bad guys. You know what the result is.

Harris Yulin plays an engaging Wyatt Earp.

By the middle of the film, you're rooting for a quick ending so that you can exit the theater.
