A Celebration of Western Movies… Pardner!
Finally got to see Old Henry.
I had ordered it from the Library,
but it showed up on Netflix.
Giving Old Henry an 8 out of 10.
I like it.
And a particularly unique firearm appears in Old Henry …
… which reminded me of another Western:
That I regard as a Western Classic.
Dead on.
Cool Water / Tim Blake Nelson
Ever been watching a Movie and you recognize somebody in the Movie, but you can’t remember who he/she is? – or where you saw them before? Happens to me all the time. I usually remember before the Movies’s over, but not always – and this will nag at me (like a Gila Monster chewing on a scorpion) for the whole Movie.
That might happen to you in Old Henry.
Yeah … I knew I’d seen Nelson recently. But where???
Couldn’t place him.
See if you can figure it out before this post is finished.
(Bet you won’t get it.)
Tim Blake Nelson … sorta like Clint Eastwood … without the good looks.
Did you figure it out?
Tim Blake Nelson in The Ballad of Buster Scruggs / 2018
