Sorry for being a bit vague, but...

There is a piece of music in an old western where one of the baddies has a musical watch or music box and has a duel against one of the good guys and they have to shoot when the music stops.

Can anyone tell me either the name of the music or the western its from.

Thanks

Why did you start watching it then if you don't mind me asking? :smile:
Watched the 1st film the other week so thought I may as well see how it ended.Think there was a feature on the radio a few months ago and they talked about it,so thought I would give it a go.Like most of Eastwood's films though(except westerns).

I have seen the film years ago.

I heard that particular piece of music on someones phone the other day as a ringtone and didn't get round to asking what it was called.

I remembered it being from a Western but couldn't remember which one

Have you tried his Unforgiven? A western, but brought up to date.

Eastwood's work gets better and more thoughtful, I find, especially when he directs them as well. Million Dollar Baby is one of his best and not just because of cracking performances by Hilary Swank and Morgan Freeman. It's a change to see Hollywood A Listers given a decent script and find that they really can act.

I enjoyed 'The Changeling' and 'Gran Torino' too - in my opinion two excellent recent C.E. films.
I enjoyed Gran Torino,moving film that one.Wasn't the Changeling an Angelina Jolie film or am I getting it mixed up with something else?
