Shades of someone else here who comments on films never seen. Did I suggest how hard it was getting to tell the two of them apart, or what? > Apparently in your puny Texan mind you believe it is pro-RAF. > Watch the film and then post since you are always dogging > people that they have to "read the article first" before > replying. The same goes for films. And it also goes for giving them a second chance. I just wanted to weigh in and thank you again for chiding me into give the new TV series "Justified" a second chance. As you correctly surmised originally, while stuck in a Texas motel room I caught the first few minutes of the 2nd episode, without benefit of having seen the 1st. That error was later rectified thanks to you, and now I'm an official fanboy. Gracias. Timothy Oliphant is as much of presence in this series as he was in <genuflect> "Deadwood." But many of the supporting cast is excellent, too (especially Walton Goggins as Boyd and Joelle Carter as Ava; the former makes me laugh out loud repeatedly, and the letter makes my little grew- up-in-the-South-and-still-a-sucker-for-Southern- gals-like-her heart go pitty-pat). The writing has by now progressed beyond the Elmore Leonard originals and into the hands of the screenwriters, but IMO it still has that EL "look and feel." He has a real knack for dialog between "real people," and for the ethics of Dylan's "To live outside the law you must be honest." US Marshall Raylan Givens proves that sometimes "To live *as* the law you must be honest, especially when other lawmen think you aren't." It's a really good series.
