The actor, at 6:06, has no idea how to load a cap and ball pistol. All he did was put gun powder in the weapon. No bullet or primer.

One of the best western short films I’ve seen

Quite a thought provoking film, well constructed with great performances. It makes you wonder how often this kind of scene played out for real when that war ended. Whether it be low level discrimination such as refusal of trade or services to outright violence.

❤🎥👏❤️

That gun reloading was really lame though

most will never know the chill of a hardened heart .

FANTASTIC. All the Hollywood quality without the fairy-floss padding. production quality among the best I've seen. well done, VERY well done. Thank you, very satisfying and enjoyable. Cheers from Sydney Australia.

So convenient--you can reload by simply pouring a bit of powder into god knows where! Just like in the video game.

more heartfelt depth than many full length westerns 🔥💯❤️

Well done!

Gangsters of the war of agression on the South.

Even the mounted postman has a soldierly bearing

Appreciate the effort. Western genre is a favorite and when done right, they can make quite an impact. This was worth the watch.

Overall...excellent. Wish justice was dealt today as swiftly as it was in this vignette.

I think I know why he kept missing those cans. He was just chucking some powder into the gun, no lead ball. He was basically shooting blanks. Ain't gonna hit a can at that distance with just a blank. He should have practiced how to load a gun first.

Interesting

First comment is that I loved the movie for all of the reasons mentioned by other commenters. It was very well done. Having said that I sincerely wish that movie makers would learn something about firearms if you are going to use them in your movie. The guns used in this production were period correct, which is great, but none of them were ever loaded. I understand that you don't want loaded guns on a movie set for safety sake, but they can be faked to appear to be loaded, even the Colt Walker replicas used in this movie.

Sometimes you just don't have a choice. Good short flick.

A student made film. Excellent work. I wish I'd been a student in your endeavor and learned from all of the cast and crew what was needed and done to put this film in Toto. At 79 yrs old, I admire your efforts and am jealous to not have learned more of your combined knowledge. So very well done.

Very well made and well acted! Nice job!

What was shown as Ohio 1863 was in fact Northern California around Napa Sonoma area, I’ve lived in both

A very good movie, and thank you so much for the great acting. Thanks again, and hopefully, you guys do somewarm movies.

Why is everyone whispering?

Moral to the story- War can make anyone a killer.

Have it your way...(I'm gonna give you the best back rub you ever....)

if his grandpa said, "son you have to put a ball in it" i woulda lost it

Completely unbelievable

I appreciate the effort and the story, but… it’s not hard to research for appropriate historical accuracy. The dragoon was well past its prime and a yankee (the north being industrialized and had plenty of modern for the era firearms) would have, at the least, an 1860 army cap and ball.

This was one of the most moving works of cinematography I’ve ever seen. Truly well done, bravo.

Grandpa might've been crazy enough to hammer a stone-cold horseshoe, but he sure taught him to load and prime black powder faster than I've ever seen it done.

Yeah !!

I like how he never actually considered if the trained former soldier in the saloon would hesitate to kill him if pushed to do it.

Perfect

He closes the barn door on his grandpa, while he’s banging on that horseshoe, and he leaves him in total darkness!🤣😂 What an idiotic mistake by the director...but then again a good actor could’ve improvised and yelled, “hey, open that damn door, I can’t see shit!”😂

Rides into town , not a spec of dust on him. ? The most completely absurd reload in film history.

This is a high school project, right? The costumes don't fit the actors. Nothing here makes sense.

Finely done! Italia lives on abroad! Bravo Marcotte, cheers from Rome!

He should’ve got the girl come on guys

slow and boring...couldnt watch

All you needed to carry on to the end. Fine thanks 😊

War begets war.

The story was probably played out many times. The filming in the acting was well done. The father who gave his son shooting lessons may have had a most important role. Truly, there was much more going on within this tale of 1867 than could be told.

The reason he wasn't hitting the target, is because he wasn't putting balls in the pistol. Maybe hiring a good technical advisor would have been a good idea.

Very well done, I would watch the full movie if this..

Love the guitar interpretation of Dvoraks New World Symphony.

Well done.

The reload during the target practice scene, needs some work. I didn't see a patch, ball or primer.

good job that was a decent video.

15 seconds of a black screen. Best way to start a film, said no one ever.

Nice.
