Subject: RE: BS: How the West was Won on Turner

I don't see many movies so I cling to old favorites. See, I don't think of HTWWW as stereotypical - since it is a saga the scenes and participants and the times change markedly.

Question: How can you think of it as formulaic when it doesn't even *show* the death of Pa?
