Well ... instead of doing what Peter Jackson later did with Tolkien's work, semi-master director Carpenter didn't try to make "Christine" just the same as King wrote it. So instead of doing everything wrong, he gets some scenes really right and his music is spellbinding.
The film goes truly defensive and low key by not putting Roland LeBay in it, instead George LeBay (Roberts Blossom) becomes a double part in some way; borrowing characters traits from booth brothers portrayed in the novel. For Roberts Blossom, this part just might be one of many in his career, but seldom have I seen acting better done. I think he could have been booth LeBay brothers, with different costume and make up.
Read the novel if you want to enjoy the film. To realize what it might miss. But don't blame Carpenter. He did an excellent job with a flawed script/adaptation.
Rating: 6 of 10.

This is a film for people with interest in the Western genre, mostly those who respect the European sub-genre, in the 1990's mostly connected to Italy, Sergio Leone and Clint Eastwood but nowadays also related to director-names such as Sergio Corbucci and Sergio Sollima.
Filmed before Sergio Leone's success of the dollar-films, Duello nel Texas has several motives in common with Leone's films. The film is said to be set in the same surroundings, the film has the same composer (Morricone of course) and the film's story is set near the border between USA and Mexico. I watched it as a small kid, with enthusiasm over the action packed plot and some colorful characters. 20 years later, I got the opportunity to see it again. No widescreen, bad colors, bad sound and a very scratchy picture. At least it was the film that I had been waiting for.
Duello nel Texas doesn't start very promising but it grows. The Morricone-music is the best of it. The main antagonists holds the film together, and everything results in a conventional but great gunfight (that kind of direction looks so European/Italian-Western). You can find rather independent woman in the film, some anti-racism and a typical fist-fight (set in a bar). The plot is not as sophisticated as the ones in Leone's films, but it works good on it's own.
Duello nel Texas is a must see for the "die-hard European Western- fan".
