Synopsis
Tom Jones
director
Tony Richardson
might seem a curious choice to direct the contemporary western The Border, but he does his best to emulate
Sam Peckinpah
.
Jack Nicholson
stars as an El Paso border guard, saddled with avaricious wife
Valerie Perrine
. Hoping to stifle her nagging about money matters, Nicholson begins accepting payoffs to allow Mexican aliens to cross the border without interference. This leads to a relationship with a young Mexican mother Elpidia Carillo.
Harvey Keitel
and
Warren Oates
lend strong support to this atmospheric tale. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
