    ★★★

    Great premise, acting, setting, but too long at parts and the surreal stuff didn’t work for me. Would have been better as a straight drama line The Teachers Lounge

    Beautifully shot, I felt like I was back in 1970. Amazing story. I was invested from the opening minutes, knowing I was watching b something exceptional.

    More than just a western. Great cast, including three Deadwood alum. Sticks with you after it’s over. Viggo starred, directed and created score.

    ★★★★

    I liked it a lot. So much depth and layers to it. What a talent Jesse is for writing and directing. It left me melancholy, which surprised me. He could have ended it with a happier resolution for these two men, but life is rarely wrapped up easily. Again, kudos to Jesse for not taking the easy/crowd pleasing way out. And Kieran… No surprise there. He portrayed his character as relatable, yet unique. I expect he will be nominated for an actor. But it’s tricky when there are two lead actors. I hope they don’t nominate both of them. Better Jesse for original screenplay.
