I have both collections and read a tale or two quite often. I consider them some of his best work.Ed Gormanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06126267358266480356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527967.post-71826186017427688012011-02-15T08:32:20.405-06:002011-02-15T08:32:20.405-06:00John,

They hold up really well to repeated viewings, and I don't know if that's the case with THE WALKING HILLS. And as you point out, unfortunately it's not readily available and I don't have a copy, so I wasn't able to watch it again. But in terms of initial impact, yeah, I think it's slightly better. Only slightly, though.James Reasonerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18049917964433932612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527967.post-8642440035114142652011-02-15T07:11:55.465-06:002011-02-15T07:11:55.465-06:00As you know, I'm a big Scott fan.

And it doesn't look to be available on DVD.<br />Rats.<br />Looks great, though. Do you really like it more than Scott's movies with Budd Boetticher?<br /><br />John HockingAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
