to be or not to be…

Movie review:

Old Henry

The tension builds slowly in Old Henry (2021, not rated, 99 minutes) and you may be tempted to stop waiting to find out what it’s all about.

Truth is, it’s easy to stay with it.

There are no “stars” in Old Henry, and no Hollywood gush.

It’s a 1906 Oklahoma western that doesn’t need a soundtrack.

There is father-son conflict and bonding galore.

There is persistent necessity to consider the yin and yang of what’s right and what’s wrong and a lot of the in-betweens.

You’ll learn a few things you don’t already know about the real-life Henry McCarty who called himself William Bonney and is known to history as Billy the Kid.

You can take some time to think about this: are we who we were, or are we who we are, or can we be who we want to be, or should we be who our loved ones think we are…

Old Henry received the “Best Feature” award at the 2021 Almeria Western Film Festival.
