Wild West Monday: Seraphim Falls review

The Tainted Archive is a daily must-read and its founder, Gary Dobbs, is—to borrow a line from Anthony Quinn—a one man tango. He single-handedly began a western revival with his Wild West Mondays of which I’ve been fortunate to be a part. WWM #3 is coming up soon so he’s asked different writers to contribute a piece of their own choosing on books, films, Old West history etc. Click on over where I’m reviewing Seraphim Falls.

Perhaps Elmore Dutch Leonard should write another Western. I wonder if there's a market for it.

As for Seraphim Falls, I've never seen it.

Off to check it out.

And a good piece it is.

JR, Leonard's westerns are among the best and it is still a very big market.

Ray, Thank you.

This is off topic, BUT I was just looking at your sidebar AND you're reading one of my favorite books and I just watched The Curious Case of Benjamin Button last night and I love Gordon Lightfoot!! What good taste we have! ;)

David Cranmer said...

Barrie, We certainly do. :)

I must review Benjamin Button when I get a chance. That was a such a fine film. And it started life as a short story.

This is an interesting style of writing that is new to me, I am enjoying what I am reading so far and will continue to check it out. Peace and blessings!

Caroline, I'm not sure which style of writing you are referring to (my post or short story?) but thanks for stopping by and I will check out your blog.
