Footnote Four (US v Carolene Products Co.)

There may be narrower scope for operation of the presumption of constitutionality when legislation appears on its face to be within a specific prohibition of the Constitution, such as those of the first ten amendments, which are deemed equally specific when held to be embraced within the Fourteenth. . . .

It is unnecessary to consider now whether legislation which restricts those political processes which can ordinarily be expected to bring about repeal of undesirable legislation, is to be subjected to more exacting judicial scrutiny under the general prohibitions of the Fourteenth Amendment than are most other types of legislation. . . .

Nor need we inquire whether similar considerations enter into the review of statutes directed at particular religious . . . or national . . . or racial minorities . . . : whether prejudice against discrete and insular minorities may be a special condition, which tends seriously to curtail the operation of those political processes ordinarily to be relied upon to protect minorities, and which may call for a correspondingly more searching judicial inquiry.

A scene from 'The Quick and the Dead'

Dug this movie back in the day, pleased to report it holds up well.  The Raimi touches are as vibrant and creative today as they were then, keeps the movie fresh.  And so does the cast.  Kudos to Executive Producer Sharon Stone for getting little known Russell Crowe and upstart youngster Leo Dicaprio to be in her movie.  And as a bonus, this is one of my favorite Hackman performances, he's pure evil in this.  All three of these dudes have now won Oscars.
