It's the fantastic cinematography of Montana shot with extreme wide angle lenses; the music; the top notch actors in their absolute prime; the direction by Cimino; the script; the dialogue; the drama -- and the cars and the guns. Not many movies feature a Oerlikon 20mm Cannon. If you've never seen this movie -- you need to watch it.
