This article needs a lot of work, both because the film is an important work in American cinema (a fact unreflected by the scant information provided in the article) and because the article is poorly constructed and expressed. For example, the Plot section tells little about the plot, but reads more like a review at first, before meandering off into trivia about the trains used in the film, and then delving into personal opinion and colloquialism. I'm not well equipped to extrapolate effectively on the film, but perhaps someone here is, someone who can structure this like a good WP article. Right now it reads more like conversation. Thanks.
