Been a little while since I awarded 5 stars to a first time view, but I can think of no other score worthy of a film as near perfection as McCabe & Mrs. Miller. Simultaneously a western and anti-western (I know it's paradoxical), this is one of the saddest films I've seen in quite a while. Two outstanding lead performances, a pitch perfect script and some lovely cinematography make this one to remember. Certainly in my top 5 of the genre.
