from peter fonda:

"Great thing about westerns is you can talk more easily about the present by disguising it as the past," Fonda says. "Take 3:10 to Yuma. I mean, you've got this posse trying to bring a bad man to justice and all these crazy guys quoting scriptures shooting at each other. We knew we were making a film about what the religious right is trying to do [in America]. You couldn't do that in a film set today. But set it in the past, make it a western, you can say whatever the hell you want."
