"look at the flowers" This was awesome
Dont recon we could get a gull feature film of this???? Hope so. Same actors and all. Well done !
Yo your friend showed me this I have to say from someone who likes looking at short films this is by far one of the best I've seen.
Thank you very much!
Live by the Gun, Die by the Gun, no more Mornings, no more Sun.
Well done! Excellent and very entertaining. Interesting sub-plots and great characters. Small detail of a 20th century half dollar to pay for the whiskey and pressed glass whiskey glasses, which would not find in any saloon, but fine Western film.
Wow, excellent!!!
You should all be proud of this production, so intrigued by the back story, can't wait to see what comes next from you guys
Great stuff :)
Its high noon
slower than low................. jmove it along
Nice film! Good photography, but just one thing, that horse is in pain!
The out of tune guitar drove me away at 3:08…
I'm at :24 and I stopped to see if anyone else noticed it 🙂
Just nonsens!
why does everyone use these dark filters and super narrow f stops in cinema these days? it is gross. the blurring and refocusing is stupid. why should people strain their eyes to see a western. sergio leone would be offended at seeing people use stupid photography tricks to violate his genre. a western needs to look realistic, not like a student showing a teacher he knows a bunch of cute techniques in film school. filters, restricted f stops and cutesy techniques do NOT belong in the screenplays of western movies. there is no situation in real life where human eyes see people as half dark and half shadow like the bar room scene. the human eye has a greater range of light than a camera and does not see like that. make it look realistic, not like a stupid super hero movie
Thank you for the comment and I appreciate your respect of the genre. This film is my take on a genre that I love, and as a filmmaker, I understand that it won't be what everyone likes.
Ok have to say I get where you're coming from, but the thing is night is always portrayed as blue if you watch "cinema" ones set in a green area often follow a colour scheme being variations greens and blues this is done to add balance everywhere in cinema. Clint Eastwoods films are a perfect example because night has blueish theme, and your request for "realism" just saying natural light will always be blue because colour is just reflections of light. Although constructive criticism is always helpful, please don't say Serigo Leone would be offended, if anything he'd be offended on what you had to say. you have to pay homage to the classics even with modern camera equipment.
Quite good, just one thing bothered me. Those cut crystal drinking glasses looked out of place. Details !
That style of telephone also looks wrong for the period.
Times were damn hard back then.....this production has hours of history in it.
Thankyou....high class!!!
if you enjoy the song at the end its called yee yee cowboy song (willowstone) by stackedrocks
Excellent story line. This was a great Western.
*_...I don't know where I'm going..._*
Hope you guys didn't spend more on the movie than the drinks cost.
No honor amongst thieves...ever.
Wow electricity in the old west
First
I really like this. Would love to see more
To stranger in a bar to set an old debt good dialogs,need more of this short westerns.😊
Round of applause to everyone involved in making this film! Well done!
They must have had extremely good artists back in the day for all those "Wanted" posters.
An innocent man could be shot just for having similarities :)
Good effort.
what crap. a female bounty hunter in the old west. what ever happened to verisimilitude.
Who acted as the barkeeper?
What's with the pretend cigarette puffing?
Good work.
Well made, well acted. These folks could be big time in the future...
Very good 💐🐎.
Sadly ...
Too long and drawn out. It would have been great at ten minutes long
When?
@@hazardbrxh5676 did you watch it? Too much build up and chatter. I used to write Westerns so take my word for it. Or keep watching boring crap. Notice I didn't go into all the technical mistakes they made

@@tinsoldier5621 Everyone's a critic smh... Oh well that's your opinion mate. I think all the awards the team received speaks for itself. I have seen the film, I think it's pretty good given this is a 21 year old first professional short film.
Lo quiero en español
Thank you❤👏
This is pretty cool. Reminds me of a Louie Lamore story
How?
Very well done!
Something original in here?
My dude you're into card magic tricks...
