Blog Week One Fitie'Five

One thing I can say about Robert Duvall (1) is he can make one heck of a western. He and Thomas Church both won Emmy's for their performances. This week's recommendation is, actually, it's a two episode TV movie miniseries. It's about a three hour watch. Well worth two bags of popcorn. And, the name of the western is, Broken Trail (2006).

This is another movie that floats between history and fiction. A tale told between the history of the Chinese west coast slave trade and the British buying American horses in the late 19th century...

"Dance now, son of a bitch!" Tom

"So I went and got our horses and our money. and had to stretch a fellow, and you start a finishing school for Chinese girls." Tom
