My Favorite Modern Day Westerns: 3:10 to Yuma (2007)

3:10 to Yuma (2007)

James Mangold (Cop Land, Logan) directs this western action drama starring Russell Crowe, Christian Bale, Peter Fonda, Gretchen Mol, and Ben Foster.

The film centers around a drought-impoverished rancher (Bale) who takes on the dangerous job of bringing the notorious outlaw (Crowe) to the 3:10 train to Yuma Territorial Prison.

The action is great, and the interplay between Crowe and Bale is simply acting at its very best.
