We were guests and, as such, were treated to one of the Ashland movie treats. Herzog's "Encounters At the End of the World". More on that another time. My comments regarding MS Zellwegger were sarcastic, even for me. I do respect her effort to some degree. I, however, felt self conscious throughout the entire story. That is not a good sign; for the problem is that I will actually have to see the movie once more in order to retain its true value. I'm sorry to have taken advantage of your timely and well considered blog by playing smart ass. Old habits, you know... Thanxxxxxxxxxxxx! EarlWiz Sir Rick,

You make a good point about the gunfight climax with about twenty minutes or so to go makes the actual climax seem like an epilogue, and it tests one's patience a little, but I enjoyed the denouement, nevertheless. I finally saw it and <a href="http://colemancornerincinema.blogspot.com/2008/10/appaloosa-2008.html" rel="nofollow">reviewed it</a>. Terrific review, Rick.

I finally saw it and reviewed it.

yes, indeed, ms zellweger can chew some serious scenery. What I don’t like — especially in this one — is her pinched-mouth idea of playing prim.

Her role in "Miss Potter" was a break-through in dialect coaching. An entire cast surrounded her with proper example and encouragement. And? Why she came through like a road show trooper stealing the scenery. I simply must see this film too. Earl E. Rick and other guests,
