Jericho (2000)
7/10
I like westerns and this was a good one.

Well, the second time was better than the first. Mark Valley was a new face to me, and as most old timers, I am reluctant to accept new actors. This one, however, was great, and gave us a very interesting, but different story. Some pictures are never seen because they are looked upon as "sleepers". Since I have been watching Digital Channels, some of the best movies and good stories are from Ch.150 to 170. Valley was a marshal with amnesia due to a whack on the head with a shotgun. He had been convinced he was one of the robbers and stayed on the run, taking jobs as a cowhand. There were near misses of people who knew him but all thought he was killed in the holdup. After being gone 8 or so years, he returns to his hometown. His memory is beginning to return in spurts. Finally, he goes home, stay outside, and sees the candle still burning in the window for him. It ended happily and I thought it a good western.
