Movie Reviews of The Missouri Breaks

Movie Review: Missouri Breaks - a little strange
Summary: 4 Stars

This is a strange western - Brando and Nicholson in a western that is a little hard to believe but very interesting. Beautiful setting in northern Montana (the Breaks) but Brando plays one of the strangest roles you might ever see - unless you watch Apocalypse Now in which he plays an equally strange role. This is not a common movie but to have both actors in the same movie is simply rare. The title has some objectionable content due to the treatment of the horses in the filming of the movie - not that one can tell watching the movie but animal rights activists have it one their list.

Summary of The Missouri Breaks

A rancher, a rustler, and a regulator face off in Arthur Penn's eccentric western. As a cover for their horse thievery, a gang of Montana rustlers, led by the laid-back Tom Logan (Jack Nicholson), buys a small farm adjacent to the ranch of their latest target/nemesis, Braxton (John McLiam). When the gang leaves Tom on the farm and heads to Canada for another score, Tom takes a shine both to farming and Braxton's rebellious, strong-willed daughter, Jane (Kathleen Lloyd). The slightly loco Braxton, however, hires the psychopathic regulator Lee Clayton (Marlon Brando) to root out the rustlers. With a series of unorthodox methods (and costumes), Clayton hunts down Logan and his gang one by one, even after Braxton fires him, but Logan isn't about to let Clayton (or Braxton) make him obsolete.
