You can see the same about [The Outlaw] Josey Wales: there's very little dialogue, and yet it contains such a deep, rich story. I've always thought of the western as American storytelling at its best.

And with that perception goes that people were good or people were bad. You survived by your strengths or you perished by your weaknesses.
