I've seen more than a few good western films in my day and I really enjoyed this one. If you don't treat it like a history book, you to will enjoy it also. The clothing for once is an exact replica of the iconic Billy the Kid photo and also reflects might what have been his true personality, or elements of it (at least). I found the relationship between the young boy and Billy, quite moving in places. I wonder if the real Billy ('The Kid') had such a good heart. One thing he did possess, was an uncanny knack of being able, to shoot himself, out of any tricky situation.
