I prefer this version to the 1969 version, the dialogue is so good! For other recent westerns I'd say I like the following a lot. Only one is within the 20 years boundary you set, but I think they were all written with a more modern sensibility toward what life was probably like during those times:
- Unforgiven (1992)
- Open Range (2003)
- Broken Trail (2006)
There's some nice modern westerns to check out:
- 3:10 to Yuma
- Unforgiven
- Bone Tomahawk
- Dances with Wolves
I recommend The Searchers with John Wayne.
310 to Yuma, Hateful 8, Power of the Dog, & Hostiles.
Best one in the past 20 years imo is The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007).
A few others worth the time to watch would be Hell or High Water (2016), The Proposition (2005), The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada (2005), The Revenant (2016), and of course Brokeback Mountain (2005).
34:07 - “i’ve grown old” …hits harder every year
ditto 35:15
Unorgivin, Tombstone and Open range are my favorites.
Never forget once 🔂 upon a time in the west. Henry Fonda et. All.
To this day I've never seen as strong a debut performance as Hailee Steinfeld in True Grit. She knocks it out of the park, easily keeping up with Jeff Bridges and Matt Damon.
She kept up with veteran actors who have made their mark, it's really impressive
the kid in The Sixth Sense wasn't bad either. lol. she was wonderful in this, really was.
Hailee Steinfeld ❤
She was nominated for Best Supporting Actress, but clearly she was the main character and the others were 'supporting' her. The studio didn't think she could win or even be nominated for Best Actress so they pushed for the Supporting role with the Academy. She didn't win, but she earned her nomination.
Ah damn, that's what I was afraid of. But she got the nomination and that definitely counts for something!
@@VerowakReacts fr! hailee steinfeld. the icon she is today, was only 14 when she got nominated, one of the youngest to ever be nominated for an oscar
Little Blackie’s ending makes me cry every time
The outro song (Leaning On the Everlasting Arms by Iris Dement) always has me glassy eyed. It's so beautiful.
That wonderful old hymn was written by E. A. Hoffman back in 1887. We still sing it in church on occasion.
this is my favorite movie! - and i don’t even particularly like westerns
the characters, the humor, the sentiment, steinfeld’s and bridges’s performances all on point!
i also really appreciate the scale: it’s a small, simple story told extremely well - not trying anything fancy, just nailing the basics
A simple story can be amazing when done right, and this movie shows just that! It's got so much character and I absolutely love the humour
@@VerowakReacts if you dugg the humor, you might consider some other Coen brothers classics. Fargo and The Big Lebowski certainly deserve their popularity, and I couldn’t find them on your channel-but then maybe you’ve already seen them.
@@doctaflo I haven't seen them. Heard of them at least lol
Good one, Verowak! I enjoyed rewatching this one with you! Thanks for sharing it. 🙂
My pleasure!! I'm glad you enjoyed it 😊
20 years is well past the heyday of the Western.
Save "Unforgiven" until you have watched a larger catalog of more traditional Westerns in order to appreciate it more. In many ways it is the high water mark of the previous 50 years of Western movies.
"Lonesome Dove" is an excellent epic tale of two hard old Texas Rangers(Robert Duvall and Tommy Lee Jones) driving a herd of cattle from Texas to Montana.
"Ride With the Devil" tells the story of the Missouri Guerrillas(Rooster's old outfit) during the murderous Border War during the Civil War. Spectacular, grim and incredibly acted by Toby McGuire, Skeet Ulrich, Jonathan Rhys Davies and more. Really a cast to die for.
"The Outlaw Josey Wales" Eastwood's somewhat more romanticized version of the Border War and the events afterward. Simply a great tale about an outlaw on the run to Texas and the motley family he accrues along the way. It contains one of the great scenes in Cinema that will leave you breathless.
"Conagher", starring Sam Elliot and Kathryn Ross is a simple tale bout a widow on the frontier operating a stagecoach station and trying to raise her adopted children. Elliot plays a cowboy involved in a unique range war who ends up in her orbit. A beautiful movie that shows a great cross section of western lifestyles.
"Ulzana's Raid" A group of Apaches leave the Reservation on a bloody raid and a cavalry patrol is dispatched to hunt them down. Unusual for its time because it neither romanticizes nor vilifies the Apache or the US Army. It simply tells the grim, often horrific realities of desert warfare against the Apaches, whom many consider the finest guerrilla fighters in history. General Crook described them admiringly as: "The tiger of the Human species" with each man being the equivalent of modern day Delta Force commandos or SEALs. One of Burt Lancaster's great roles.
I highly recommend the original version of True Grit. This was a very good remake. The original is also great.
they are both great, they are different too.
All Cohen brothers movies should be watched! They also wrote the part of Ballad of Buster Scruggs, which was on Netflix recently. But they wrote it for Tim Blake Nelson, while filming Oh Brother Where Art Thou? 20 years ago! This is why public hanging, should be brought back!😅😮. All Cohen brothers movies have offbeat dialogue! My favorite movie of theirs is still their first, Blood Simple! How they got it made.... they filmed a fake trailer, with no stars, for a film that didn't exist! They basically snuck it in to a film festival and somehow got it shown a couple times. All the sudden a few investors approached them and said, we're in! So now, they had to make a film! It's very film noir of a murder in a 80s Texas town.
Yes the casting for Maddie was so awesome in this movie she is she's so awesome
Absolutely outstanding! She killed it
Thanks, Verowak! 🤠 I love this one. Kudos to directors Joel Coen and Ethan Coen. The original from 1969 is great, too.
This is such a good movie as is the original with so many big stars and smaller ones, each with an amazing body of work. But this was the first time I had seen Hailee Steinfeld in anything and she was so good and just look at her now, amazing. I loved this reaction :) The hat suits you too.
Thank you so much!!! 😊 I never thought I'd see Matt Damon in a western, but here we are! The whole cast was just stellar
I've watched this movie so many times, and only saw it for the 1st time about 7 months ago.
I love how the men take care of Mattie despite being vehemently against her joining them in the beginning, even getting a hiding from Leboef for being cocky, but they end up almost giving their lives for her.
30:41 - “shoot where they’re gonna be, not where they’re at!”
-Futurama?
Heck yeah!!!
@@VerowakReacts made my day 😁
dialogue is great in this movie and Coen brothers movies always have awesome side characters. I love the lawyer questioning him in the beginning.
If you ever want to read a great western novel, "True Grit" is the one. It was written in the 1960's by Charles Portis. I have reread the book many times; it is one of my favorites. It is told from Mattie Ross's perspective, many years after the events of her adventure. This 2010 remake is excellent, and well worth the viewing, but do not miss the version from 1969 with John Wayne. Another great western is "The Magnificent Seven" from 1960.
🤠👍 In the original from 1969, the Mattie Ross character's age was moved up to 16, and the actress who played her (Kim Darby) was actually 20. It's got a great score by Elmer Bernstein.
Such a great remake, that I like better than the original version. These are a little older than 20 years old, but I really liked‘Young Guns’ and ‘Young Guns II’.
One of my favorite movies. Thanks for reacting to it. And in case you missed the theological implications, its central theme is justice and mercy. These are the two everlasting arms of God that the Coen's chose for the score of the movie. Rooster plays the role of a Jesus figure, especially in the end when he risks his life to bring justice to Ned Pepper and shows mercy to Mattie by going all out to save her life.
As to Mattie, she walks on the narrow edge between justice and mercy throughout the film but eventually abandons mercy when she kills Tom Cheney in cold blood. When this happens she is immediately thrown into the snake pit and fittingly loses one of her arms for the choice she made.
The original adaptation of this movie cut all the religiosity out of the script. The Coen's, however, put it all back in, which is what makes the remake IMO 1,000 times better (not to mention the fact that Jeff Bridges and Matt Damon actually knew how to act their parts as opposed to John Wayne and Glen Campbell, the original Rooster and LaBoeuf, who merely read their lines while playing themselves).
Absolutely! This version is far superior to the original.
One thing I am terrible at is symbolism of any kind in movies 😅 Definitely didn't make any connection to anything theological, except when Mattie said a religious passage at the beginning and LaBoeuf seemed to say a small prayer before shooting Lucky Ned from 400 yards away.
I do think acting style has changed a LOT, so watching older movies usually has a very different characterization than more modern movies
*hot blood.
People nearly always get this wrong because “killing in cold blood” is a cliché. Mattie killed Chaney in hot blood-she had an emotional motivation to kill him. Killing someone in cold blood is where you do not have a preexisting emotional relationship with the person, yet you kill them anyway. That is why “killing in cold blood” is so despised, because the victim had not done anything to wrong you, yet you killed him. It is completely different with Tom Chaney and Mattie Ross, hence she did not kill him in cold blood.
@@isaackellogg3493 It's not a cliche. It's a euphemism for killing someone without just cause. Rephrasing therefore Mattie killed Chaney in spite of his no longer being an immediate threat, which makes it in the eyes of the law, a first degree murder. And a frist degree murder is a murder that is calculated, hence the term cold-blooded. It was not a crime of hatred or passion. It was a crime of expedience.
@@itt23r nonetheless the term is a cliché, as it is commonly used to mean “killed ruthlessly,” “killed deliberately,” or even “killed in the heat of the moment, but without cringing or whimpering,” such as in gun-free nations like the British. Hence my classification as a cliché, “a phrase or opinion that is overused and betrays a lack of original thought.”
This version is much closer to the story told in the book than the earlier film. . There are many great western movies - but not a over abundance which will match your 20 year time line. A modern day western - Hell or High Water is an excellent character study, and a good story as well.
Cantrell was notorious, and there is a lot of evidence to believe he did what LeBoeuf said.
One of my all time favorites. I always recommend watching the original first which I also love to get the full genius of this movie.
What a fantastic character.
Barry Pepper playing Ned Peppers...perfect.
I think you’d like Silverado if you haven’t already seen it. A very young Kevin Costner and a host of others. A fun western.
I haven't seen it, my list of western movies that I've seen is 2 or 3 including this one 😅
Love this reaction and the hat Verowak! I loved this movie too, saw it twice in theatre.
3:10 to Yuma, The Proposition, and The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford are great 2000s westerns.
Thank you!!! The hat helped me feel part of the movie 😁 The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford was a movie I've always wanted to watch... I should get to it!
If you touching these kind of forgotten gems, I suggest to find The Big White with Robin Williams. Nothing to do with sharks, but snow.:)
Funny, excellent cast, in my opinion Williams' best role. Worth a dig, I promise!
Awesome reaction! I love this movie. I love everything Hailey is in, too, but this one is just an incredible first impression. So many great lines, but my favorite is when Rooster investigates the dead hanged man and just says "I do not know this man." The delivery kills me! 12/10.
I can't believe how well she played the role, and there is SO much dialogue for her!!
There are so many great lines and delivery in this, I'll be watching it again soon for sure
"Tombstone", "Open Range", "Unforgiven", "Silverado", "The Quick and the Dead" and "Lonesome Dove" (Mini-series) are among the best of what I would call the Modern Western.
Ned pepper’s name in real life is
Barry Pepper.
I wonder if the character’s name was originally just Lucky Ned, but then when Barry got the part his real last name sounded good with the character.. just a guess...
No, just a coincidence. Ned Pepper was known as Ned Pepper in the book and Nes Pepper when Robert Duvall played him in the 1969 movie and Ned Pepper in this one
If you haven’t seen ‘Moon’ with Sam Rockwell yet, you should definitely check it out. Very small character list, and Sam Rockwell does an amazing job.
Brilliant movie. I watch it often. Hailee - awesome performance.
My favourite western is The Proposition. Yeah, it's set in Australia, but it still counts as a western as far as I'm concerned. Probably not popular enough for a reaction (and that's probably why there are no reactions to it), but I definitely recommend watching it.
Maddie had said that she would avenge her father's death, if the law failed to do so. As it turns out, that's what she ended up doing.
i love this. I love the original, I love the remake, I love Mattie Ross, I love love Hailee Steinfeld as Mattie Ross, I love that this picture was chosen out of a list of such immense remakes...
I think, more than anything, though, I love Verowak in that hat. On point in terms of aesthetic and mood 👌
I definitely need more hats to fit the movie mood 😁
I like your hat. Classic! By the way, love your reaction. Good work...
Thank you so much! 🤩
I wondered about the speech patterns and looked it up. Apparently the dialog is very realistic for the time period. Fewer contractions were used. Saw the original when it came out. This version differs very little, and is the best western remake I've ever seen.
Def one of my favorite westerns, both the original and this one. They're very similar in a lot of ways but there are some key differences that make both worth watching. Great performances all around in both versions as well.
I love seeing different movies based on the same content, it's always interesting to see the different takes!
Such a special book to my generation.. 6 kids in my family, and we all read it, because it had something for everyone..
This is the more faithful adaptation, but the original is still good..
awesome movie, and awesome react 🙂
Thank you! Loved the movie
"Matt Damon". The way you introduced him to the movie has made me a fan.
I haven't seen Team America yet, I just know that's how it's said in that movie lol
@@VerowakReacts Your next reaction movie just chose itself.
Hi Miss Verowak!😊 You look nice in your hat!🤠 It suits you. I held off watching this one till later in the day, as it is kind of sad. This was definitely the film that made Hailee Steinfeld's career. Another very good western remake is "3:10 to Yuma" (2007) starring Christian Bale & Russell Crowe. Like this film it has a relatively small cast. "Tombstone" (1993) has an all star cast and is very popular with fans and critics. Great reactions to this well made western remake that often is overlooked, Miss Verowak!!!🎬👏👏👏👏
Thank you!! Hailee Steinfeld was simply amazing, she did fantastic!! 3:10 to Yuma is definitely on my list, and I keep seeing Tombstone mentioned also
So glad you chose to react to this movie. It is one of the rare remakes that is better than the original. Jeff Bridges should have won an Academy award for this role. I believe he was passed over because John Wayne won his only Oscar for this same role in 1969. The dialogue is so sharp, as is usually the case with Cohen brothers movies.
I definitely need more Cohen brothers movies, I loved the dialogue and delivery!!
When you said Mattie and Little Blackie would be re-united at the end I wanted to hug you. XD
Steinfeld grew up to be a great actor. She voices the lead character Vi in "Arcane" on Netflix.
Lucky Ned Pepper as you noticed is actually Barry Pepper. He's a wonderful actor and one of my favorites, truly underrated. I adore this remake as much as I love the original. I was a little girl and it was pretty intense to watch, I cried so hard when Little Blackie died. I didn't understand and my father had to explain the priority for Mattie's life. The film had a profound impact on me. I couldn't have been more than ten. I'm actually quite grateful that my father showed me such movies, despite him being otherwise abusive, the media I was exposed to helped me grow and make sense of the world more.
Other westerns in the past 20? Hm. I have to go further, but Silverado, Tombstone (I can't remember if you've seen), Open Range, and it's a six-hour movie but Lonesome Dove. Westerns aren't really a genre. More of a setting. A western can be any genre. I'm sure many would disagree with me, but that's my position.
Great react, Vero! ♥
Little did I know... Little Blackie would be the reason that Mattie survives 😭
I think it's great when movies can help us grow and understand things. Seeing the ending as a kid would have been devastating!!! At least your father did one thing right and showed you great movies like this 💗
A six-hour movie?! Oh boy, that sounds like a nightmare to edit 😨 Whether western is a genre or not, I need to see more 😁
@@VerowakReacts Heh. I'll concede that it's both a genre and a setting. Not every western takes place in the American West. Some take place in Japan or... space.
And just to clarify I meant the original is what I saw as a child. My father is a terrible person, but he didn't just let me watch anything because he didn't care. He recognized I was mature enough to handle it.
Six hours just for the first one! There's quite a few. Different actors take over the roles. But Tommy Lee Jones and Robert Duvall remain my favorite. Many people still consider it their definitive performances of their careers. I imagine it'd take at least three parts to react to if not more. XD
Hah, fun reaction, dressing for the occasion :). The original John Wayne adaptation kind of has my heart since it's from my youth and I remember watching it with my dad but this one's a very worthy remake (re-adaptation ?) and I might even say a better film, all things considered.
(based on an excellent book too, Mattie Ross is one of the great fictional narrative voices IMO)
I would love to dress for the occasion more often, but it gets a bit tricky since I don't know anything about the movies😂 Western is pretty easy though lol
@@VerowakReactsAh yeah, must admit I hadn't thought of that but very true, in a lot of cases just knowing what to wear could constitute a spoiler :).
The dialog was as close to the books' as possible. Great language!
I'm looking forward to reading the book for possibly more dialogue lol
"How many members of the Wharton family have you killed?"
"Immediate or...?"
Comedy. Gold.
Love your laugh and smile, Verowak. Thanks for the reaction.
I love that scene!!!
My Dads fave movie… he passed away last year, I watch it every month now 👍🏻
Wonderful watching this with you -
I'm glad you enjoyed it 🤩
Modern western series...would be "1883" it's like 10 episodes...and it's Great!
You must watch Tombstone! Also 3:10 to Yuma is very good. But Tombstone is probably my all-time favorite western.
I've heard the title 3:10 to Yuma a lot, I should get around to watching it soon
"Open Range" is worth watching.
While I really like both movies i do prefer this version more, because I am a big fan of the Cohen brothers. I will also say that this movie was a little more true to the book than the first one or I should say that it was a little more detailed. It had more stuff from the book in it than the original movie.
I love how people speak formally in this and do not use slang. That is how the book was written.
31:43 - “are you alive”
- sounds like they got Meg Griffin for ADR
20:35 "Oh no he's being dragged" and "Shoot the man not the horse."
Those two sentences don't belong together.
He's being dragged by the horse, not the rider.
If Cogburn shoots the rider, the horse starts running, dragging LaBoeuf to his death.
The horse that was shot was not the one that was dragging LaBoeuf, so it wouldn't have affected him
Rooster is the main character, there is even a second movie with his character in it just called Rooster Cogburn
No, actually Maddie Ross is the main character. The “sequel” Rooster Cogburn had nothing to do with the original other than the character. Not even written by the original author.
@@Parallax-3D Correct the sequal was a stand alone movie specific to Rooster but True Grit was about a gruf, grumpy, old, and the meanest lawman around.
Maddie was only the delivery character to lead us to Rooster.
I mean the name of the movie was describing Rooster himself.
Love your hat!
Thanks!! I'm glad I have it so I can wear it for western reactions 😁
While I haven't seen it since it's on Paramount, one miniseries that should be good, if it sticks to the true history is LAWMAN: BASS REEVES.
Barry Pepper is a phenomenal actor, whether it's this film, The Green Mile, Saving Private Ryan, etc. He stars in a film called Snow Walker which is excellent.
I've never heard of Snow Walker, but if he's in it, I would definitely watch it lol
It was a different time. Girls twelve and thirteen were considered old enough to marry if they so desired, and Mattie was fourteen.
27:36 Lucky Ned Pepper is played by an actor by the name of Barry Pepper.
I wonder if he likes peppers 🤔
😆@@VerowakReacts
Great remake and reaction.
Thank you, the movie was great, I agree!!
Awesome reaction of my favorite movie!!!!!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Glad to hear it's your favourite movie! I absolutely loved the humour in it (and everything else lol)
Love your reactions
Thank you!! 😊
That is one tough girl. My 19th century women ancestors were like that.
I really need to read this novel some day.
You and my both. I think it'll be a great read
This isn’t really a remake. The Coens went to the original novel, not the previous movie
I learned that after having seen the movie, I prefer it when it goes by the original content and not remaking a movie
I'll watch her with you but anyways The original is really really good
id say an underlining theme of this movie is revenge is not the way. many times mattie had a chance to turn back, being nearly killed, seeing death being a horrible thing from afar and even up close. all her talk about the law and such lead to nothing when she had that rifle in her hand. tom was unarmed with his hands up and she fired her shot anyways. literally the moment she does her life took a turn for the worst, the cause being her own lust for revenge, not justice.
Jeff Bridges was the perfect choice to play Rooster Cogburn.
This version followed the book pretty closely.
Great reaction. Nice that you enjoyed. Thank you for sharing with us.
Not sure if you’re actually looking for suggestions here in the comments. Forgive my faux pas if not. Not within your 20 year timeframe and it was a mini-series for broadcast tv, but Lonesome Dove was a great story based on a Pulitzer winning novel. Believe you’d enjoy. Thanks, again & be well. 💚 Happy St. Patrick’s day also. ☘️
Thank you! I am looking for western suggestions yeah since I don't know of many and I'm curious about recent ones :D Happy St. Patrick's day too!!
Watch Rio Bravo. Best Western ever made.
Love watchin you watch things, kiddo.❤ Let's go Unforgiven for the win. I believe it's Eastwoods' best work...acting and directing.
Howdy, I’m subscribing
Howdy, and welcome!
Howdy!! Hope all is well. You should keep the hat, it looks good on you. You seemed to enjoy the remake, maybe the original will interest you in the future. Have a great weekend.
Thank you, I'm glad I wore the hat 😊
This is definitely one of my favorite films. I had never watched a western until I played RED DEAD REDEMPTION 2 (the video game). So, I gave them a try. This is one of my favorites. It's so well-made -- and true to the times (including the way that people spoke).
Having seen both movies, I would say that the second one is closer to what was in the book.
I'm curious to read the book and see the John Wayne version too now to see how they all differ lol
@@VerowakReactsIf I remember correctly, the author's name is Charles(?) Porter.
@@ronfehr7899Charles Portis
The Cohen Brothers strike again!
"I love how people die at the end." Who said too much honesty is a bad thing? 😂
😇
Great remake, however, I do enjoy the original ending a bit more. While this movie is much the same, there are several changes, and I would recommend the original to anyone.
I love Cowgirl Veronique, really suits you and hopefully you will continue with the western theme for some more of your reactions 👍
I do need to see more westerns to get a feel for the genre!
@@VerowakReacts for true epics of the genre you could choose either The Searchers or The Big Country.
Alternatively, you could choose more modern made movies like Bone Tomahawk or The Homesman or even a modern set film like Wind River.
Look forward to whatever you end up watching, cheers 💚
For a good Western I recommend The Magnificent Seven. However, this recommendation is a three parter. First, watch the original Japanese film Seven Samurai which all the others are based on. Second watch the 1960 western remake, The Magnificent Seven starring Yul Brynner. Followed by the 2016 remake starring Denzel Washington.
Other westerns to watch:
Unforgiven 1992. But wait on this one until you've seen a few westerns as it's a bit of a flip-flop of the old western tropes.
Rio Bravo (1959)
The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (1962)
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969)
High Noon (1952)
Shane (1953)
3:10 to Yuma (1957)
A Fistful of Dollars (1964) But watch the original Japanese film, Yojimbo, first. Then, For a Few Dollars More (1965) and the magnum opus, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966) This is called The Dollars Trilogy. The three films are all different stories, but they all have the same actors. These films made Clint Eastwood a westerns legend.
The Outlaw Josey Wales (1976)
Silverado 1985
Tombstone 1993
The Cowboys 1972
A couple Australian westerns:
The Man From Snowy River 1982
Quigley Down Under 1990
Such a great classic western!👏👏👏
No...this is a decent REMAKE of a "great classic western."
@@ChrisReise This is a remake that outshines the original in every conceivable way.
In your OPINION.@@shelbyseelbach9568
Technically it's a re-adaptation of the novel
@@VerowakReacts you are right.
If you want to see a very young Dustin Hoffman in one of greatest Westerns of all time you can't beat LITTLE BIG MAN. Of course it doesn't fit your 20 year limit but it's a fantastic movie. Put it up for a vote.
My heart soars like a hawk.
Gotta love a good Western. I remember blowing out my birthday cake candles when I was six, and wishing to be a cowboy lol.
Having seen this movie, I say they could have cast Jeff Bridges as Mad-Eye Moody.
I haven't heard him do a British accent 🤔
@@VerowakReacts That’s just what he WANTS you to think!
Greatest western movie ever John Wayne in the movie The cowboys
In the hanging scene in the novel, the Indian guy gets to talk. He tells the crowd he believes in Jesus and hopes to see them all in heaven and the people applaud. Modern audiences wouldn't have enjoyed that though, so they changed it for the movie.
I see that you recognized Lucky Ned Pepper from The Green Mile.
The beard threw me off for a bit. It's really hard to recognize people with and without a beard
Suggestion: the novel is a good read…a couple times for me. You should give it a try.
YOUNG GUNS is pretty good and has some truth in it. MEEK'S CUTOFF is definitely different in the way it was shot. UNFORGIVEN is a Clint Eastwood Western loosely based on a real character.
The most insane thing about this movie is that, afterward Halliee Steinfeld spent several years chasing a bland, uninteresting music career. She came back to film eventually, but her acting buzz had cooled and IMO she's done nothing remotely befitting her huge acting potential since this movie.
I really loved your reaction, and P.S., DANG you look good in that get up! ♥

Nobody in the reaction sphere has done Little Big Man
