IMDb plot summary: Aging cowboy Will Penny gets a line camp job on a large cattle spread and finds his isolated cabin is already occupied by a husbandless woman and her young son.
Directed by Tom Gries. Starring Charlton Heston, Joan Hackett, Donald Pleasence, and Lee Majors.
Well, this is just very strange to watch right after The Stalking Moon, another western movie from 1968 with an incredibly similar plot. This one, however, emphasizes the romance, ends on a downer, and doesn't dance around nearly so many interesting plots. This is definitely one that's going to disappear out of my memory very quickly.
