Waited a long time for this movie to show on YouTube TV again, and man it was worth it. This movie is fantastic. It provides such a great perspective of how fractured and different America was at the end of the civil war, while also breaking the mold of the 4 other Clint Eastwood westerns I’ve seen, with Clint *not *being the Lone Ranger like he typically is. The dialogue with Ten Bears was so well written, and honestly probably my favorite part. “*Dying ain't so hard for men like you and me. It's living that's hard*.” The dry humor is still there from his other movies as well, with the funniest character being the Cherokee. I give Clint a ton of credit for not only including the Native American perspective, but also casting only Natives to play Natives, even including a Navajo speaking only in her native tongue. My only critique would be that the “main” story is kinda forgettable for about 20-30 mins when they arrive in their new spot. But, I can let it slide because the ending really brings it all home. Call this glaze or whatever I just like westerns.

This movie was better than I was expecting tbh. Pretty funny and witty, very goofy. Plus Dolly Parton. Everyone loves Dolly.

This movie is so fetch
