    Pass me that spittoon.

    Ok so it's a bit slow but don't let that put you off, it's gritty with empathy towards the main characters. It has political and moral undertones and we'll acted throughout.

    Impressed!

    Seldom ever do a review here. Had to cause I've NEVER thought of Bill Pullman as above average actor. This has to be his best as an actor in his career in my opinion! Kudos to Bill!

    Pullman is a force

    Sooo....how have I NEVER heard about how incredible Bill Pullman is in this movie??? Everything else in the movie ranges from decent (visual beauty, solid drama) to downright bad (Caviezel, little kid), but Pullman...my God. He's a force.

    A Western with Heart

    I love an underdog--who doesn't? With The Ballad of Lefty Brown, Jared Moshe gives the audience a chance to revel in what happens when a bumbling sidekick (expertly played by Bill Pullman) loses his left-hand man (Peter Fonda) and is compelled by love and honor to take revenge. The cinematography is gorgeous--think Andrew Wyeth landscapes at sunset--and the mood of the film remains true to its genre: pensive, a bit wild, and ripplingly tense.

    The film succeeds most when it juxtaposes Lefty's incompetence with his determination. Lefty doesn't take action with grace and style like so many other Western heroes--It's just not in his nature. Even his friends think he's too incompetent to manage a ranch let alone outsmart some highly capable bad guys. Lucky for us, his tenacity reveals strength within a love that compels him to do what everyone around him thinks impossible.

    As the film progresses, our desire to see Lefty "win" takes on a deeper meaning. Not only do we want him to succeed because justice is pleasurable to witness--Lefty's success is also proof that courage comes in all packages and that true grit reveals its own type of grace, one that is often overlooked when we dismiss those at the bottom of the pecking order.

    The Ballad of Lefty Brown is a meditation on what happens if we stop worrying about our flaws and instead explore how we can work with them. Who knows, maybe one of our weaknesses could come in handy some day...

    Excellent performances, quite a story

    It's a crime that a movie like this grossed under $8k at the box office when tripe passes for blockbusters

    • Trivia
      Lewis Pullman who plays Billy Kitchen is Bill Pullman's son in real life.
    • Goofs
      Although Lefty does not appear to be left-handed -- he shoots right handed, rides right-handed (holding the reins in his left hand so that his right hand is free), and wears his sidearm on the left side, butt forward, so that he can draw it with his right hand -- he could have gotten the nickname for some other characteristic or habit.
