Shane (1953)

(Unspecified western state, likely Wyoming; late 19th century, possibly 1890's)
IMDb

Beloved western staring Alan Ladd. Simple story elegantly told. Deals with archetypal American themes of the land, individual rights, and the stoic stranger. Excellent cast includes Van Heflin, Jean Arthur, Jack Palance, and Brandon De Wilde at the start of his far to short career. You should see this one.

Also today caught about 85-90% of Zodiac (2006) over at my brothers. Real good, I intend to see the whole thing some time.
