I love it when you can take a handful of characters, a simple location, and then tell a story that knocks your socks off. This is what storytelling is all about. Kudos to everyone involved with this movie!
I had zero expectations for this movie but it was a GREAT western. The performances, cinematography, score, story, all of it was a pleasant surprise. Fantastic film.
Anyone else completely floored by this film? The visual of Old Henry moving through the brush, totally one with it, was incredible. Like a human mirage being filmed. Fell in love with this one within the first 10 minutes. It's a modern Greek tragedy.
Tim Nelson, he has come a long way and the fact that he gets his own movie, the lead and its an action movie? Yeah, this is worth the watch i feel. Really awesome to see him.
Awesome movie awesome character I was loving him so much and he was on for so little.. I went in blind too, I knew not what type of movie it was... I recommend the ballad of buster scruggs to anyone that likes interesting movies. It’s a very unique movie
One of the best movies I have seen in a long time. Genuine, deep acting. Nelson always delivers, his soul is like gravity that weighs down on you every time he speaks. No woke nonsense. Just a fantastic film.
The movie is such a slow build, and so somber, up until the big reveal... LOL, the experience for me was akin to "The Usual Suspects"! I have a feeling this one will stay with me for a long, long time!
I'm sure you've seen it. But have you seen Yellowstone, season 1 through 3? You'll want to watch that ASAP. You have just enough time to see the first 3 seasons before November, when Season 4 comes out. Yellowstone is perhaps the greatest modern Western ever made, nothing else even comes close. There's a few scenes that are so intense that you can barely sit through them.
In the time of streaming services pumping out movies and shows on a weekly basis, Old Henry is a true gem. This one will stay with me. Anyone wondering to watch, wonder no further. If it came out in the 90s, it would be a classic by now. Hats off to Potsy Ponciroli, Tim Blake Nelson and everyone else that were involved in producing this masterpiece.
This was an awesome movie. Just a plain, simple story with some mystery, grit, and action. Great acting, good script, and really cool turn at the end that I personally didn't see coming although maybe I should have, lol. No politics, no unnecessary drama, just a straightforward to-the-point western.
@@lubbucs546 Sure, but it's such a common sounding name that it sounds like he made it up to hide his true identity from the law. Very few people know who "Henry McCarty" was, if not for his infamous pseudonyms.
I first paid attention to this incredible actor in the Cohen Bros’ “O Brother, where art thou ?” I am so pleased to see that he is finally getting his own film. #RESPECT
Maybe you've heard of him. Known to some as the San Saba Songbird. He has other handles, nicknames, appellations, and cognomens. But the nickname 'The Misanthrope' isn't even halfway earned.
From top to bottom, this is one of the greatest open range westerns of all time, with the greatest 'reveal' at the end of all time! Tim Blake Nelson was brilliant in his role of Henry, and Steven Dorff is perfect as the outlaw leader. Beautifully filmed with a script that is purposely nuanced and measured. Finest film of 2021, along with Bob Odendirk's 'Nobody'.
Just finished watching this 5 minutes ago. I'ma tell you like this... This is one of the best westerns I've ever seen (and I'm old) with a surprise ending that will make you sit up in your seat. Don't read anymore youtube comments. Just go watch this film. You won't regret it.
I’m not usually a big western fan as a whole. Friend suggested we watch this, I’d never heard of it. I was truly blown away on every level! The acting, the story, the ENDING! What a masterpiece from beginning to end! A truly captivating movie and experience! Well done!
This movie was amazing! Made me feel like I was a schoolboy again watching one of those ol'westerns from back in the day.. Amazing performances all around.
The Book of Truth When things were at their very worst: 2 Suns, Cross in the sky, 2 comets will collide = don`t be afraid - repent, accept Lord`s Hand of Mercy. Scientists will say it was a global illusion. Beware - Jesus will never walk in flesh again. After WW3 - rise of the “ man of peace“ from the East = Antichrist - the most powerful, popular, charismatic and influential leader of all time. Many miracles will be attributed to him. He will imitate Jesus in every conceivable way. Don`t trust „pope“ Francis = the False Prophet - will seem to rise from the dead - will unite all Christian Churches and all Religions as one. One World Religion = the seat of the Antichrist. Benedict XVI is the last true pope - will be accused of a crime of which he is totally innocent. "The time for the schism in the Church is almost here and you must get prepared now"
Cloax: This isn't an "... old Western...". Old Western were white hats and black hats and good guys and bad guys.. and reality was you might not know which was which. That Civil War we entertained put a lot broken souls into "the West". A few men lost their humanity and a few their minds. Wars do things like that...
I didn't know what I was walking into putting this on. This is extremely well done, written, and casted. I grew up on the Classic Westerns, and they were the best moments together with my dad and family, down here in the Caribbean. I will admit after movies like Tombstone(1993), Silverado(1985), and 310 To Yuma(2007) I stopped watching modern Westerns. Seeing Old Henry has renewed my zest for more modern Westerns like these.
I just got done watching this. It's one of the BEST westerns I've seen in a LONG TIME! It's really grounded (and gritty), and Tim Blake Nelson KNOCKED IT OUTTA THE PARK!👍
One of the absolute best movies I've seen in a long time. The fact that it has a different outcome of a historical figure and portrays them in a different light makes you wonder how their life truly ended 🤔. Some say they died young, but this says they died later in life. Either way, this was an excellent and entertaining movie from start to beginning. I rarely watch movies, but I've watched Old Henry twice because I missed some of the significance that makes this movie a true gem💎.
There's some pretty interesting research into a lot of historical figures in that category. Some folks think that Jesse James faked his own death. There's a pretty conclusive case to be made as well that John Wilkes Booth escaped too.
Couldn't agree more! There's a lot of ill-fated cheesy western crap out there. The acting, cast and story line in this are absolutely outstanding! In my opinion it ranks up there with "the good, the bad and the ugly" and "Forgiven"! Hard to point out a single flaw!
@@JacobTyler1776 and Hitler, and Elvis : ) the "X actually escaped and lived happily ever after" trope is among the oldest ones in the book. PS. there's at least one major religion based on that premise.
I love seeing movies like this come out. No "End of the world!", no supernatural make-believe, no huge armies. Just a story about a few people fightin over a bag of money. Excellent
If you like westerns, watch this immediately. The build up to the end is intense, and it is one of the best westerns I’ve ever seen. The ending is goosebump inducing good.
So I'm 37.. There's not a movie that's gotten me into the theater in quite a while. This might be one. That's a nice old school setup. Lee Marvin type of goodness. Tim Nelson cast as this role takes it up a notch. Excellent choice.
This is the first movie I have watched twice in one week since Forest Gump in the 1990's. The cinematography, background music, character's emotions, believability, pace of actions and storytelling are just freaking awesome.
He was a part of a pretty dark group of child actors in the 90s. A lot of them didn't make it. I believe he still has a substance abuse problem but he looks pretty healthy now. It's good to see.
Being born in 1962, I was lovingly indoctrinated via war movies and westerns. Shane and True Grit comes to mind. High Noon, Tora Tora Tora, Midway. I love me a western. Hollywood doesn't need to saturate the genres. But don't give up on them, either. They'll be customers waiting to spend their money.
Tim Blake Nelson nailed this role. He’s really come into his own. This part makes me respect him as a great actor. This has to be one of the best westerns I’ve seen since Unforgiven. I rank this as one of my favorites. I wasn’t sure what to expect until I watched it. After watching it I decided to buy it.
Oh man...amazing! Can't wait...the lead actor was in O Brother Where Art Thou, yes/no? He knocked over the Piggly Wiggly in Yazoo but all his sin were warshed away :)
I love it. The perfect actors for the roles. Westerns were my father's favorite movies and sometimes I feel the need to warch a good western. Thank you.
Just about the best Western I've ever seen... incredible story-telliing and spectacular cinematography. Right up there with Clint masterpieces. Tim Blake Nelson is outstanding!
@@farzana6676 Captivating to say the least. I'm usually pretty good at figuring out where plot lines lead to... this one caught me off guard as I was totally in the moment with Old Henry... and pleasantly surprised by what transpired. I did have a slight inkling about something but I turned out being wrong but close to it (don't want to give anything away)... and that my friend is why I love movies/storytelling like this... filmmaking at it's best.
Great to see Stephen Dorff again, after that great performance in True Detective. I'm a sucker for Westerns so I'll definitely see this movie, looks good. And oh, Tim Blake Nelson on a Western/action movie is reason enough to see it.
Damn I miss Westerns. I really liked Hostiles with Christian Bale. Kinda rare to get a good ole time fashioned Western for the modern era. Surprised by Nelson playing the lead, it fits him rather well. He might aptly be suited for a gunslinger role, can't wait.
Hostiles was so freaking good. man was it choice, I love these period pieces, the feel of being transported to that time and that place. you sir made a good comment and now i am happily set to rewatch a good movie I forgot about. TYVM.
I gotta say this is one of the best westerns I've ever seen!! With a twist that you might suspect!! If you haven't seen this film yet...do yourself a favor!
I just come across this movie last night and let me tell you how GRRREAT!! This Movie is. Wow. Best I've seen since No Country for old men. This Movie is Gangster af
I watched the movie just from reading the coments. I didnt feel the first 1 hour of the movie at all,it felt like 10 min had passed. It was a great piece. Gladly i watched it and i enoyed it.
@@jjbrowned313 Henry McCarty was his birth name- when he went out west he took the alias William H. Bonney, going by Billy most places. In the trailer you can see the newspaper headlining the Lincoln County War of New Mexico, which shot Billy into infamy.
Looks fantastic. I can relate to this movie in a major way. I know three very old grandpa guys but back in there early years were a terror on earth and now they are simple quiet people just trying to get into heaven and regret their past. Funny how the past comes back to haunt you later on as the closer you get to the grave And the secrets they take with them.
So this looks like it may be a retelling of the survival of Billy The Kid, given the character name, gun handling skills, and mysterious origins. If so, I am ALL FOR that! This looks like it could be really good!
One of the papers he pulls out of the drawer says "Lincoln County" on it, which is where The Kid was best known. That sealed the deal, with me. I'm almost certain he's Billy The Kid and I am VERY excited!
My papaw's name was Henry born in 1908 in Kentucky. Sounds like some of the stories I heard from the old days. He told me you were either a coal miner farmer or Moonshiner. I asked him which one was he and he never truly answered it he would always joke around. 🤔😳
Pa woulda snapped a few times raising a boy. No way the kid wouldn't have known. When you got a real one for a father, trust me, you know. But I'm gonna take my dad to the theater for this one.
@@drewgormley6933 - truth - but I met some some old badasses that I wouldn't have know if it weren't for witnesses of their badassery - but these were the kindess men that EVERYONE respected.
You know never really know with those guys. I had an old Polish guy in my neighborhood (I use to mow his lawn) who fought in and survived the Red Attacks on Poland in 1920, the German and Soviets Invasions in 1939, and fighting with the British in 1940-45 winning several citations for Bravery, including a DSO. The reason we knew was some papers found in his home after his died along with the DSO and several Awards from the Polish Government (1920 and WWII).
"HaHa"? The next respondent said a "real father". Some of those men barely survived and many didn't keep and humanity. Some of them were killing machines and some were just farmers. There's no "real fathers" in killing machines. You worship violence and you'll only learn violence. Broken and twisted souls don't teach children well.
As someone who grew up on westerns and even grew up in a town where westerns were filmed (Cañon City, Colorado) this Western Renaissance brings me so much joy. And not to jinx it, but I’m glad it’s not all remakes and reboots
Wow! This movie was very well put together. A good Western flick. All the actors did a good job, with good chemistry too. I like movies that you have to pay close attention to little details, because when it comes up again later on - it makes it even better. Hope this movie wins awards. It deserves it.
Wow, I saw the movie, I was surprised….I didn't know or remember Tim Blake Nelson as an actor, well….a great movie maybe from me because I know well the story of the character behind him and I've seen some movies on which he finally reveals himself. I also consider that he looks like… or let's say his face fits well with the original character. I was amazed I didn't suspect this revelation… the ending yes because in the end it is a western film. Beautiful I recommend it and thanks Tim for your interpretation ... I grew up with the great films and actors of Sergio ... Sergio Leone. Good job!
I'm a big western fan and coming in to this movie I had no idea who he (Henry) was, although with the last name Mccarty I should have known. But what a great surprise to me it was when they revealed who henry was. Was blown away, very, very cool movie.
No fake and gay CG, not a single woman trying to play victim in the whole film! Just an all male cast in a story of redemption and revenge. It wouldn't be socially acceptable to make a film that I would call perfect these days, but this one comes close.
I love it when you can take a handful of characters, a simple location, and then tell a story that knocks your socks off. This is what storytelling is all about. Kudos to everyone involved with this movie!
Yep, just watched it a little ways back - thoroughly impressed.
Loved this movie

Excellent movie
I love it when they choose characters that look like real everyday people. Makes the experience feel more real and grounded.
Looks really good. I love hood westerns.
I totally agree !
Oh spot on! The pretty boys and girls destroy the realism of it all.
You don't think the Rock could pull off an old farmer?
That's a big reason why I enjoy foreign tv and films, especially British and Northern European.
I had zero expectations for this movie but it was a GREAT western. The performances, cinematography, score, story, all of it was a pleasant surprise. Fantastic film.
Ya, the trailer looks great. Thanks for the recommendation. I'm going to track it down for a watch.
Anyone else completely floored by this film? The visual of Old Henry moving through the brush, totally one with it, was incredible. Like a human mirage being filmed.
Fell in love with this one within the first 10 minutes. It's a modern Greek tragedy.
Yup, agreed!
Well put!
I absolutely loved it , every second , every shot of it , practically a perfect movie
Man, I love the resurgence of these Westerns. This looks really good.
It actually does. Surprisingly so.
What are some other new ones? I don’t follow movies much, but I do like westerns.
Yes , I've missed it

Really awesome to see him.
You just channeled my feelings exactly!
Dude i am elated! It looks like he trained hard with those weapons too. Its gonna be a lot of fun.
I agree, he's a tremendous actor.
And it's a freaking Western!
Hell yes!
Tim Blake Nelson, after the ballad of Buster Scruggs, I wanted more and we got it. Good shit
It's kind of jarring seeing him go from Buster Scruggs to this grim Henry character.

Yea he gave an oscar worthy performance for sure
Very good… Stephen Dorf was great as well
Thank you for this review

It’s been YEARS since I’ve been this excited for a western!!
Can we all just agree that Tombstone may be one of the greatest movies ever. That being said, I have serious goosebumps seeing this trailer here
I'm sure you've seen it. But have you seen Yellowstone, season 1 through 3? You'll want to watch that ASAP.

First day on Alt. Earth:
“Tim Nelson and Bob Odenkirk are action stars here.”

How's the storyline. Is it captivating
@@farzana6676 Captivating to say the least. I'm usually pretty good at figuring out where plot lines lead to... this one caught me off guard as I was totally in the moment with Old Henry... and pleasantly surprised by what transpired. I did have a slight inkling about something but I turned out being wrong but close to it (don't want to give anything away)... and that my friend is why I love movies/storytelling like this... filmmaking at it's best.
Finished it last night it was one of the greatest movies since unforgiven tired of supper heroes movies this was a westerne badass masterpiece
WOW! This is the best lookin one in years and I'll be damned if Tim Blake doesn't get his DUE this time around. This is a must watch for me!
Great to see Stephen Dorff again, after that great performance in True Detective. I'm a sucker for Westerns so I'll definitely see this movie, looks good. And oh, Tim Blake Nelson on a Western/action movie is reason enough to see it.
Damn I miss Westerns. I really liked Hostiles with Christian Bale. Kinda rare to get a good ole time fashioned Western for the modern era. Surprised by Nelson playing the lead, it fits him rather well. He might aptly be suited for a gunslinger role, can't wait.
Hostiles was so freaking good. man was it choice, I love these period pieces, the feel of being transported to that time and that place. you sir made a good comment and now i am happily set to rewatch a good movie I forgot about. TYVM.
@@mikew735 You’re welcome.
A cousin of mine was one of the Sons of the "Land Owner",killed at the end...
I highly recommend watching this movie , we missed it like this
I gotta say this is one of the best westerns I've ever seen!! With a twist that you might suspect!! If you haven't seen this film yet...do yourself a favor!
Can’t wait to see this movie. It’s interesting to note that Henry McCarty in western history was aka Billy the Kid.
I heard Henry McCarty and thought of Billy the Kid I was like hell yeah. The newspaper had a piece of Lincoln county so it's Billy the Kid
i don't know why but that clip led me to believe he is billy the kid
I knew there was something special about this film.
And now I've got the Young Guns 2 OST on repeat...
@@jessejames6090 if you look closer it also says "Garrett gets his man"
Pat Garrett!
Love Tim Blake Nelson. His writing and even his acting has been so underrated!!
Totally agree, such a great all around everything!
Stephen Dorf really suits the Western theme, its good to see him back, underrated actor.
He is jewish
@@luisg.5700 A lot of cowboy actors are.
I liked Dorf ever since Blade.
Funny I've always seen Stephen as overrated.
@@lhurst9550 He was a libtard in that TV show the sheriff lol a little one to.
I just come across this movie last night and let me tell you how GRRREAT!! This Movie is.
Wow.
Best I've seen since
No Country for old men.
This Movie is Gangster af
I watched the movie just from reading the coments. I didnt feel the first 1 hour of the movie at all,it felt like 10 min had passed. It was a great piece. Gladly i watched it and i enoyed it.
Went into this trailer with no expectations, and now I'm slavering at the prospect of a Billy the Kid story. This is gonna be *good*.
I'm with you buddy.
Is this supposed to be a Billy the kid story, i dident realise.
@@jjbrowned313 Henry McCarty was his birth name- when he went out west he took the alias William H. Bonney, going by Billy most places. In the trailer you can see the newspaper headlining the Lincoln County War of New Mexico, which shot Billy into infamy.
Shot left handed, Licon County papers.
Billy The Kid" Excellent movie
Looks fantastic. I can relate to this movie in a major way. I know three very old grandpa guys but back in there early years were a terror on earth and now they are simple quiet people just trying to get into heaven and regret their past.
Funny how the past comes back to haunt you later on as the closer you get to the grave And the secrets they take with them.
Truly a master piece... great acting, directing, on the edge of your seat Suspense. I can't say enough about the movie
Was so happy to see this actor with a leading role!
What is the song that starts playing at 1:48 to 2:21 ? Does anyone happen to know? I've tried to search very hard but haven't found a single thing.
Awesome and epic movie riddled with historical twists and references. Loved it and getting it for friends and family. Worth getting.
So this looks like it may be a retelling of the survival of Billy The Kid, given the character name, gun handling skills, and mysterious origins. If so, I am ALL FOR that! This looks like it could be really good!
Could be, would for sure if they would have played down the super-being angle.. And what is that supposed to mean "Everywhere but here." ??
@@bill2953 I repeated it in my head when he said it with that look on your face of "huh?"
@@Dennis-66 Sounds painful. lol
He named his son Wyatt. The hat he wears towards the end of the clip with the side pushed in is reminiscent of one of BTK famous photos.
One of the papers he pulls out of the drawer says "Lincoln County" on it, which is where The Kid was best known. That sealed the deal, with me. I'm almost certain he's Billy The Kid and I am VERY excited!
This is the best western I have seen in years. I highly recommend people to see it.
Great filmmaking. Absolutely made the top of my list 2023
My papaw's name was Henry born in 1908 in Kentucky. Sounds like some of the stories I heard from the old days. He told me you were either a coal miner farmer or Moonshiner. I asked him which one was he and he never truly answered it he would always joke around. 🤔😳
Reminds me, in a way, of Clint Eastwoods character in Unforgiven. Love to see him finally get the lead role. I've been a fan since "Brother..."
"Who ARE you, Pa?!?" - When you find out your ol man the baddest in the west!!! HAHA
Pa woulda snapped a few times raising a boy.
No way the kid wouldn't have known.
When you got a real one for a father, trust me, you know.
But I'm gonna take my dad to the theater for this one.
@@drewgormley6933 - truth - but I met some some old badasses that I wouldn't have know if it weren't for witnesses of their badassery - but these were the kindess men that EVERYONE respected.
You know never really know with those guys. I had an old Polish guy in my neighborhood (I use to mow his lawn) who fought in and survived the Red Attacks on Poland in 1920, the German and Soviets Invasions in 1939, and fighting with the British in 1940-45 winning several citations for Bravery, including a DSO. The reason we knew was some papers found in his home after his died along with the DSO and several Awards from the Polish Government (1920 and WWII).
@@marks1638 There's a DSC in my family, so I know that's no joke. Brave man there. Hope he had a friend
"HaHa"? The next respondent said a "real father". Some of those men barely survived and many didn't keep and humanity. Some of them were killing machines and some were just farmers. There's no "real fathers" in killing machines. You worship violence and you'll only learn violence. Broken and twisted souls don't teach children well.
Awesome to see Steven Dorff again
This movie was so good. The lead actor was excellent. Highly recommend this one.
“Who are you Pa?”
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I shall fear no evil: For I AM the meanest SOB in the valley.
As someone who grew up on westerns and even grew up in a town where westerns were filmed (Cañon City, Colorado) this Western Renaissance brings me so much joy. And not to jinx it, but I’m glad it’s not all remakes and reboots
Westerns is one of my favorite genres, this looks as if it has something potential, cant wait
Wow! This movie was very well put together. A good Western flick. All the actors did a good job, with good chemistry too. I like movies that you have to pay close attention to little details, because when it comes up again later on - it makes it even better. Hope this movie wins awards. It deserves it.
Wow, I saw the movie, I was surprised….I didn't know or remember Tim Blake Nelson as an actor, well….a great movie maybe from me because I know well the story of the character behind him and I've seen some movies on which he finally reveals himself. I also consider that he looks like… or let's say his face fits well with the original character. I was amazed I didn't suspect this revelation… the ending yes because in the end it is a western film. Beautiful I recommend it and thanks Tim for your interpretation ... I grew up with the great films and actors of Sergio ... Sergio Leone. Good job!
Tim Blake Nelson was often the best part of most of the films he was in... this here looks to be no exception. 😎👍
All I can respond with is a resounding... YES.
The role Ive been waiting for from this guy.
Can not wait.
Henry McCarty, AKA Bill the Kid. Yeah, you boys picked the wrong fight... this movie looks awesome.
Wasnt Billy the Kid's name William H. Boney? 🤔
@@true_gentleman079 Birth name: Henry McCarty, aka William H. Bonney.
MR DORFF LOOKS FANTASTIC.
I'm a big western fan and coming in to this movie I had no idea who he (Henry) was, although with the last name Mccarty I should have known. But what a great surprise to me it was when they revealed who henry was. Was blown away, very, very cool movie.
No fake and gay CG, not a single woman trying to play victim in the whole film! Just an all male cast in a story of redemption and revenge. It wouldn't be socially acceptable to make a film that I would call perfect these days, but this one comes close.
Worst take
This looks incredible. First movie trailer I’ve said that about in years… Years…
Henry McCarty AKA William H Bonney AKA William Antrim AKA Bushy Bill Roberts AKA Billy The Kid
SPOILER ALERT!!!
He moves like a snake, slowly, stable and focused on enemy i really want Old Henry Part 2 ❤
Accidently came across this, and goes straight to my movie bucket list. Nothing like good ole Western.
Me before watching trailer: this looks meh
Me after watching trailer: When the eff is this coming out..I need it now!
Oct 1.
@@lexwaldez I was about to reply "So when is it?!" ...lol, thank you!
Looks like there'll be a lot of cowboys who trade their spurs for wings in this movie!
I was thinking same.
Billy The Kid was, is, and will always be my favorite outlaw.
Agreed
BEST western I have watched in Years!! Great TWIST at the end.............
A clip from TikTok convinced me to watch this movie……easily one of the best movies I’ve seen. INSTANT CLASSIC.
I sure love seeing Tim Blake Nelson in a well-deserved lead role, but isn't this a little dark for the San Saba Songbird? ;-)
I’d say it’s going to be a sympathy!
