It does seem to drag... also look at the wiki page and look at the list of actors whose scenes were completely cut out of the movie . Impressive ensemble cast .

The scene where nick nolte goes to the hill and curses them out is one of my favorite scenes

Same reason people love Tombstone and hate Wyatt Earp...and not saying either of those is on par with SPR or TTRL.

No doubt.

That is the sequence that stands the test of time. It is amazing.

The rest of the film doesn’t live up to that bar, imo, but it still has powerful moments and beautiful imagery.
