La balade de Lefty Brown

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

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!

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.

Pullman gives an idiosyncratic, detailed performance as Lefty.

Watch Pullman closely for only a minute or two, and then you will not be able to take your eyes away from watching his inspired acting in this wonderfully filmed western.

Needed more development between Lefty and his long-time friend Edward (Fonda) though - so we the audience feel the deep friendship as well.

Pullman as Lefty, in spite of his drawbacks as a simple, but well meaning ranch hand totally convinces us that heart, loyalty, friendship, and honor do indeed matter.

Never ever count out that person to do the right thing all the way to the end.

We would all be lucky to have a caring, determined friend like Lefty. - AVS

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.
