Re: film: 3:10 to Yuma
Just saw this movie and agree that no real human being would do such a quick turnabout like that. His #1 was more loyal than most spouses are to one another. No way he would turn on him like that.
I was wondering if anyone knows an approximate inflation rate for the movie. It's easier for me to relate to the things he was willing to go through if I can contrast and compare the sums in today's dollars. I was guessing the rate was about 30 times difference so the $200 he was doing all that work for would be $6000 in today's money. I couldn't find anything on Google giving inflation exchanges from that time period.

Re: film: 3:10 to Yuma
$200 is 10 ounces of gold, or about $7000 at the moment. However, gold is severaly depressed right now compared to what it would be if it were still monetized. So the number could conceivably be much higher, maybe $30,000 (a reasonably nice new car, say).

Re: film: 3:10 to Yuma
Thanks Borodog. I had a feeling you would be the one to answer my query.

Re: film: 3:10 to Yuma
Bale said he charges $2 per day when he works for someone else. So i figured $200 was about 1/3 of a years wages.
Bale did refer to $1000 as a fortune though. A couple years salary is by no means a fortune. rJ_

[/ QUOTE ] Besides the silly Costner/Benning love story subplot...Open Range was pretty damn good. It was a slower moving, more drawn out type of western, so if those aren't your cup of tea then you may not love it...but the end shootout sequence was fantastic.
