Love this movie

I never heard of this movie in the US and I went to the cinema about 3 times a week while off work for an illness in the 90's. I loved the films of the 90's, there were so many good ones, all hitting theaters so you had multiple choices for weeks on end; they were in theaters for much longer periods back then, so I could catch two at a time. I believe the 90's are now known as 'the movie generation" for the amount of movies produced that hit the theater back then. They weren't spending mega bucks on block busters leaving little movie for indie productions back then, so indies were plentiful.

I saw this about 10 years ago on a late night cable channel and was surprised at how much I loved it, all the plot twists and turns so you never really know who the bad guys are til almost the end. Makes it more suspenseful, a favorite genre of mine. I thought it would be a western as do many others I presume, who then pass it up.

Never a fan of Lara Flynn Boyle, I watched it anyway and enjoyed her performance..but the best of all was of "that guy" J T Walsh (RIP Mr Walsh). For your info a "that guy" was coined in a magazine article I read about character actors who when you see them you go "Oh that's 'that guy", what's his name. Yet, you never know his name; less prevalent with the creation of IMDb. JT has a good body of work for a life cut short too young.

It was fun watching Nicholas Cage in this in the "innocent" villain role. I shan't say more about the plot not wanting to spoil it for others, but if you like your suspenseful Coen Bros type of movies, this movie is one to add to your collection, I have.
