13 years from O’Toole. The existentialism of spurned imperial fantasies, the camera recording only the position of the subject, concealing its objects, a ridiculous despot, a noble savage, a patch of still desert. Schneider’s eyes bite, very intelligent like lines cast in evening shallows.

El Dorado 1966
I don't know man. Hawks was maybe the last great humanist filmmaker in Hollywood. Where Rio bravo deals with the future with its oppressive potentiality, El Dorado is about the past as both a totalizing and farcical story, as it both determines you and creates the conditions for revolt. The past is a song with a broken melody.
