The thing that jumped out at me was how subdued and gentlemanly Hamer and his sidekick were. Probably pretty realistic.


I liked the movie a lot. tough, understated protagonists. real depression. real guns. interaction between Hamer and Barrow Sr. was good even if not historical. real politics.

Damn lucky none of the good guys got shot in a melee like that.

And at the end, the realization of what media and celebrity can add up to.
