She Was the Deputy's Wife

This film will keep you on the edge of your seat. It is a unique story with some incredible twists. The acting is excellent as is the cinematoraphy. I've been back to watch it several times to catch all the subtleties in the action and dialogue.

The characters evoke strong reactions, even more so when a plot twist challenges your perception of reality as the film presents it. This is my favorite of the 12 Westerns that have been release on-line so far.

Notice to future myself: Watching mushrooms growing would be more interesting.

I almost never write bad reviews for Indy movies, and especially Westerns. It's really easy to please me and I love low budget flicks. Just check my reviews. But man, this one just needs someone to voice reason and is quite possibly the worst movie I have ever seen. It pains me to say it. The acting was good. It just has no reason to exist. There is absolutely nothing compelling about the story or anything that happens. Who bloody cares? And the soundtrack is so freaking annoying. It plays the same song over and over again no matter what the emotion is supposed to be on the screen. And the kicker was, at the end credits the same of played. And it was really bad. I mean I love simple, computer program scores. But it didn't fit anything that was going on. I bought this movie because I figured it would be hard to wreck a western like this. But it really is so very boring, with no reason to exist. I had to watch it in installments like eating my peas. Because it was so awful. Again, the actors were good and the scenery and cinematography was fine. Just so utterly uninteresting and dumb. Literally the worst movie I have ever seen and I am a movie buff who loves cheesy cult and b-grade cinema. I will not watch another one of the 12 months of westerns or whatever this guy does.

Really enjoyed this western. It has an unusual plot line for a western more reminiscent of a Shakespeare story. The basic story is about a women who feels trapped in her life and marriage until she meets a young horse thief. She falls for him whilst helping out at his brother-in-laws ranch where he is hiding horses that he has stolen. The women is enamoured by one of the horses, a white mare, not because of the horse itself but because of the lost freedom the horse represents.

The main part of the story revolves around an unscrupulous marshal who wants the white mare for himself and he is willing to do anything to get it.

The film is apparently part of a series of 12 films although I have been able to locate any of the other 11 so far.

Definitely a film to watch as long as you are not after a shoot-them-up cowboy film.

Forgive my unoriginal title, but don't let it deter you from this film. I truly felt like a townsperson watching the excitement of this western AZ town. As the story begins, I was as clueless as anyone else but intrigued by what was playing out. Very quickly some characters were clearly good and clearly bad. The characters were well fleshed out through dialogue and actions. When the story began to unfold, I could not take my eyes away. As a woman, I found much of the lines and dialogue insightful and moving. I was worried the romance wouldn't sit well at first, but the explanation worked superbly and I felt, was realistic. By the end, there had been murder, redemption, romance, evil, shoot outs, and more. The acting was great, no one better than the Marshal. Great film. One you will want to watch all over again after understanding some things you didn't the first time.
