Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaIn a deleted scene (included on the DVD), Ben Wade (Russell Crowe) tells Byron McElroy (Peter Fonda), "I heard that your boss, Al Pinkerton, got an infection from biting his own tongue, and he died last month. Is that true?" Allan Pinkerton did die from an infected bite on his tongue, on July 1, 1884. This would place the events of the movie as occurring in August, 1884.
- GoofsBefore the gang set the stage coach on fire, one upward-angled shot of Charlie Prince shows that there is no roof on the stage. The lawman "trapped" inside could have exited through the large rectangular hole at any time.
- Crazy creditsRussell Crowe's name is not used in the end credits when crediting his assistant, driver, stand-in, dialect coach, costumer, hair stylist and makeup artist; instead, his character's name, Ben Wade, is used.
Featured review
No western, with courageous sacrifice, can be stunning by accident!
Christian Bale (Dan Evans) holds the screen as an honest rancher who volunteers for two hundred dollars to be part of a doomed group of guards to take the enigmatic bandit and killer Ben Wade (Russell Crowe) to a train, the 3:10, leaving Bisbee, Arizona for Yuma prison to trial
Beaten down by an old Civil War injury, and unable to protect his farm and his family from Wade's ruthless gang and humiliated by his teenage son (Logan Lerman) who makes no efforts to hide his disappointment in his impoverished father, and who doesn't try to hide the fact that he admires the charismatic criminal, Dan finds a great quantity of reasons to undertake the perilous trip to Contention City to fight back like a real man and regain his son's respect The story concentrates on Evans whose unknown destiny tries to paint to his son an unforgettable picture turning up poignant and endearing
Wadeleader of a murderous band of robbershad great respect for Dan throughout the film and develops a kind of understanding and appreciation for him Their short scenes in the hotel room celebrate the virtues of two opposite men who stand up for what they believe stopping on issues in relation with family, dignity, virtue, and admirable integrity The best scenes are those in which Wade teases Dan: "Your conscience is sensitive, Dan. It's not my favorite part of you."
Crowe's interpretation of a gifted cold-blooded smooth-talking bad man is one of the most compelling parts of the film Bale is splendid as the struggling, crippled rancher, misunderstood by his whole family The two actors comfortably inhabit this stunning western
It is nice to see that there are still good westerns being made lately And James Mangold's "3:10 to Yuma," a remake of Delmer Daves' 1957 picture, is one of them It is a Western with realistic violence, great action sequences, breathtaking photography, and an inevitable final shoot-out
