The last vignette was deep. Lots of very good symbolism and plot development throughout. I really enjoyed it.

Just as interesting vignettes, with pithy dialogue and cool visuals, it's worth watching.
But, you have to know that's all it is. Ain't a ton of story there. It's all subtext and meditation on death. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: You have it backwards. Its the people that have the ability to watch movies that require critical thinking skills that liked it. Half of GD just went in watching it expecting it to be Tombstone or some blast 'em up shit probably not seeing it was a Coen Brothers movie. I haven't watched it yet. I've been waiting and waiting for it to come on one of the movie channels. I freaking love all the stuff the Coen Brothers put out. I can't wait to see this one. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: The Ballad of Lefty Brown was a much better movie. I turned that one off after about 20 minutes or so. Lonestar just wasn't cutting it for me. He seemed like a bad rip off of the sheriff's right hand man from Bone Tomahawk. That being said I might give it another try. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Pretty much every one was bleak and depressing. The very last one was just some people riding a stagecoach talking. I have no idea what the conversation was even about then ended abruptly when they arrived at a hotel. When the closing credits came up I was like “WTF did I just waste my time on?” Everyone in the stagecoach is dead. They just don't realize it yet. It's kind of an "Occurance At Owl Creek Bridge" story. |

Jay I think that Mortal Remains (the stagecoach one for those who don't remember the titles of the vignettes) was the weakest one. If I were to go back and re-arrange/edit, I dont think i would have had that one last. |

Good Lord I did not realize just how shallow and dull people are. Each short is a story unto itself and also ties the others in as well.
It is a collection of life experiences each beginning with life and ending with a death, showing death is often brutal. The last story starts with death and the beginning of a different life of infinity. |
