Mexican shawl is so reminiscent of Clint Eastwood
Because a Mexican shawl is so reminiscent of Clint Eastwood in his 'Man With No Name' spaghetti westerns, Casper Van Dien looked 'wrong' when he took to wearing one late in the movie. Instead of enhancing his gunfighter status, it diminished him in my eyes as he could not compare to Eastwood.
I'm sure the reason for the shawl was because this movie was originally written with Eastwood in mind.
