    My favorite part was having my son play younger me in the film! Something we will cherish. 😊

      I KNEW there was some striking resemblance between the younger and older characters! I commented like several months ago from another account stating how good the young/old characters resemble each other, and now we know the secret ^_^

    By the time 17 minutes was over I had laughed, I had cried, I had sat on the edge of my seat, carving claw marks into its arm rests and warmly sobbed with admiration. It felt like I had just watched a 2 and a half hour movie.
    I want to nominate this for "best movie to watch stoned" award.

    Man, the VIOLENT tone shift when he died, where we as the audience and the character both realized that this isn't a game any more. This was immaculately handled, and I genuinely had a single tear escape from both eyes.

Made me believe that I was actually viewing the old west on my screen just like it really happened. Highest marks for realization, costumes, locale, and clear, bright, sharp photography. The surprise ending was Awesome!!! Thank you so very much for great entertainment!!!!

    You surely have a grasp of all the little things it takes to make a great Western! I enjoy your films so much, they are so well done and have aspects of the old American Westerns as well as some of the great Spaghetti Westerns of Leone, Corbuicci etc.
    Fantastic job, you have a fan here my friend. I think that your casting is also great. This one was a supreme short film. I hope you can continue with your art, my friend. I would definitely pay to see a full-length feature with you at the helm!!
