The short story's available online. [1] Part II provides the back story
as to why a civilian named Peyton Farquhar is being hung by the Yankees
in the first place.
    The French treatment's bereft of words and instead focuses on
1960s era black and white surrealism. <- It seems like there ought to be
(a possibly French) name for that genre. Does anyone know it?
