The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada
Has anyone else seen this movie?
I watched it last night and loved it - LOVED IT... Just thought I would see what everyone else thought!

That's high on my list of things to watch next. I'm happy to hear another good review.

TLJ was truly magnificent and, while not a huge personal fan, Pepper was also very good. His last couple of scenes were rather emotional!

I saw it and liked it quite much. The camera work of the west was stupendous. I'm not sure I've seen the west filmed like that before.
It was quite reminiscient of the last quarter of Lonesome Dove when Woodrow Call drug Augustus's McCraes body from Montana to Austin for burial. Same sort of individual keeping his word to an old friend for honors sake. Woodrow didn't go quite as crazy as TLJ did in this one, but still went a little nutty. EDIT: I'm big on redemption in people, so having the guy at the end understand why they were doing what they were doing was good as well. He got redemption by his works.

Sorry...there's probably a reason I don't discuss much here.
