3:10 to Yuma (VHS)

Very loosely based on the excellent short story by Elmore Leonard.

They really transmogrified the story to produce this movie, making it a long weepy ordeal.

I hope the upcoming remake (by the director of Walk the Line) is closer to the original story.

Interesting to see Glenn Ford as a villain. He did a very good job with his role.

Van Heflin gives a compelling performance as the protagonist, despite the weak script.
