"Pale Rider" is a well acted, complex film. There is a strong reference to Biblical justice woven into the plot. Additionally, Eastwood's character is an enigma in the story. At times he seems spiritual and almost superhuman, at other times the "Preacher" appears "sinful" and all too human. I appreciated the complexity of the plot and characters. If you enjoy westerns, "Pale Rider" is a must see film.
