that stupid Kid ruined the movie


That idiot kid riding with clint n the black guy from se7en, he was so annoying and predictable, total ruined one of the best westerns ever. Good thing he didn't have scenes with lil bill, it would have taken his Oscar away

You're referring to Morgan Freeman as "the black guy from se7en"? I think you're the stupid kid.

reply

I believe he was supposed to be super annoying and stupid.

Which means the actor did his job well.

Now, this is a signature gun, and that is an optical palm reader.

I get the point of the character and the actor did a great job, but I couldn't stand him during the shootout at the rocks. "Did you get him?" over and over again.

reply

That's whole point, the kid idolised the legend of the gunfighter, and knew that's what he wanted to be. Then realism kicked, the actual killing and the ones doing the killing, it wasn't as glamourous or exciting as he'd expected. And it turned out that the Kid didn't have the stomach for it either.

Yup he showed that they had poseurs even way back when.

Glad I'm not the only one distracted by his incredibly wooden acting. Looks like Ricky Nelson from Rio Bravo might have to relinquish his Awkward Acting in a Western award.

There is more in you of good than you know, child of the kindly west
