Having been made in 1953 (Shane) and 1985 (Pale Rider); the makers of each film used significantly different

    I definitely think the best things in life are not free. There are so many examples I can name. For one‚ every thing you want in life you have to work hard to earn it.

    Free will is fundamental to human existence (Arnason‚ 2011). Neuroscience implies that free will is not a defining feature of humanness‚ but is in fact an illusion concealed by biochemical complexity (Burns & Bechara‚ 2007). Developments in neuroscience have led us to question our views about whether we have conscious free will (Heisenberg‚ 2009; Nahmias‚ 2009; Smith‚ 2011).
