Texas Red

I found this story very intriguing and very well done. The actors did a great job!! I'll watch several times & I love that's it's filmed in Mississippi!!!

Considering the budget, this seemed to really stretch every dollar. An overall great film.

The photography was wonderful. The scoring actually pleasently surprised me at times.

The acting was up and down. I felt a few actors did really well while others not so much.

If the budget was doubled, I'd invest in higher quality sound equipment for less reliability on ADR. Sometimes it's very noticable when lip reading dialogue doesn't match up.

Also more atmosphere would help, especially in the woods. The sfx can be costly, but it would really help the picture.

Was worth the watch. Have no clue why some of these people feel the need to give this 1 star and be nasty. This really was a good film!

I was hoping this movie would be about an Arizona Ranger riding into the town of Agua Fría to engage in a gunfight with an outlaw whose kills numbered one and nineteen more.

Questions have been raised asking, "How is this a Western?" Historical truth: many of the stereotypes we associate with the culture of the trans-Mississippi "Wild West" originated in the Deep South, pre-War, including the "shootout" (the southern duel), the outlaw turned sheriff, the tough Sheriff who controlled his territory, the juke joint (saloon). These and other cultural elements were exported to the Far West with surviving Confederate soldiers, who, when returning post-War to a decimated South, headed West. The original venue for the highwayman and American outlaw type originated along the Natchez Trace; that, too, was an export. As far as "Is this a true story?" Yes, in its essential elements, although every storyteller-- in this case, Mr. Mills-- has license to "translate" it to a new medium.

Umm the review below is inaccurate this movie had nothing to do with the plight of buffalo soldiers. This movie was about a black man being hunted in mississippi for standing his ground; which historically happened many times.
