Watched it on a whim, and was astonished by how much I liked it. It's the sort of movie that resonates in my brain for days afterward as I mull over it.

I tend to need them to be at 10am or before, so I don't miss lunch and it doesn't eat into my afternoon.

Can't say all the things at once, I guess.<br /><br />Maybe Fassbender was a little <i>too</i> good at playing cowboy? He certainly seems to be glomming up our imaginations!Hamlette (Rachel)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11961916847426233995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3881774.post-36309180801887392952017-03-28T11:22:25.442-04:002017-03-28T11:22:25.442-04:00GOOD!

(And I'm pretty sure it'll still be showing, it's been making a LOT of money at the box office and they wouldn't shut it down that quickly.)

Like you, I like this movie more and more every time I see it, and it's also my favorite Fassbender role to date. He should make more Westerns. Oh wait...

I do hope to see it in the theater, if it's still showing not this coming weekend, but the next.
