unlabelledView post →Another film I recently discovered that I recommend is "Old Henry". My favorite genre is Sci-Fi, but there's a special place in my heart for westerns because I am ranch raised and there was a lot of "old west" history that happened on our land. That being said, Tim Blake Nelson is a master actor!

unlabelledView post →Old Henry is a really good movie
unlabelledView post →3 of 4. I LOVE Old Henry. Tim Blake Nelson is sooo good in that movie! First Blood is great...although it's not at all like David Morrell's novel, in which Rambo is not a sympathetic character and Teasle is. The Package was pretty good, as I recall. Haven't seen it in quite a while. No Supergirl.
unlabelledView post →I watched Old Henry last night to see what all the fuss is about. It was really damned good. Great performance from Tim Blake Nelson and the rest of the cast is good too. If you like Westerns this is a hard one not to like. Small cast, limited number of sets, decent action. A nice, tight film.

unlabelledView post →This Potsy Panciroli guy is apparently someone for me to keep a major eye on bc his film OLD HENRY is one of the most surprising & remarkable westerns I’ve seen in years. There’s another film of his now streaming that I’mma need to catch called GREEDY PEOPLE w Joseph Gordon Levitt & Himesh Patel?!
unlabelledView post →For those of you still of the Netflix persuasion, they're showing the Tim Blake Nelson movie "Old Henry." IMHO, this is one of the finest Westerns ever made. Bare-bones & bare-knuckle, authentic setting & costumes. Outstanding script, camera & acting. Folks will watch this thing 100 years from now.
unlabelledView post →I can't remember who recommended I watch Old Henry. I'm glad they did. If you like westerns go in completely blind. It's a solid movie.
unlabelledView post →Just watched Old Henry on Netflix and if you haven't, you should. Brilliant film that could (and this is absolutely meant as a compliment) have been made any time in the last fifty years.

unlabelledView post →If when you think of Tim Blake Nelson you first think of Delmar in O Brother Where Art Thou, or of Buster Scruggs, as in The Ballad of... After you watch TBN in Old Henry (2021) I doubt you will be able to think of him as anyone else ever again. Wow. What a movie. #TimBlakeNelson utterly rules.

unlabelledView post →#filmsky #films 📽️ Old Henry | 2021 w/ Tim Blake Nelson, Gavin Lewis, Scott Haze, Stephen Dorff all I knew about the film was that there would be a twist. and hell yeah, a twist it was 😯 great western 👌 "You have no idea the hell storm you fixin' to let loose."
unlabelledView post →Old Henry was super solid. I didn’t expect this film to evolve the way it did but man-oh-man… that one is getting added to the library for sure.
unlabelledView post →On a Richard Speight Jr. kick recently because of #Supernatural. Been in some great little films, even when he doesn't have a leading role. Tonight's slice was #OldHenry, a grimy and honest #Western with a tiny cast that really sells the brooding quickfire violence of the Old West. Very, very good.

unlabelledView post →The action sequences in Borderlands appear to be incomprehensible. By contrast, I feel like I could draw a map of the house from Old Henry (a movie with a much smaller budget) based on what we see during the final shootout. I find this confusing up until I remember that some people just don't care.

He was excellent, but he could not save the writing or cinematography. No matter the "OH WAIT BRO, WHERE YOU BE" chops. #oldhenry #netflix #movies #westerns

Tim Blake Nelson does a fantastic job portraying the main character (I won't spoil it for others interested in seeing the film) Much underrated film and I don't watch very many.

unlabelledView post →I love Goodfellas, in my opinion it’s close to a perfect movie. BUT The idea that Ray Liotta is supposed to be portraying a 21 YEAR OLD Henry Hill is absolutely laughable.
unlabelledView post →Watched Potsy Ponciroli's Old Henry. It's a slick little Western with a good performance by Tim Blake Nelson in the lead. It's a bit thin overall and relies on a twist you'll either think is cool or cheap, and that'll define the film for you. I thought it was cheap, personally.
