Pat and Billy again

Billy The Kid is once again our protagonist in another retelling of the tale. Only this time the story of a brother and sister orphaned on the New Mexico frontier have their situation cross with last days of Billy The Kid.

Ethan Hawke is Pat Garrett and Dane DeHaan is Billy who seems to have drawn a lot from what Emilio Estevez did in the Young Guns movies.

Brother and sister Jake Schur and Leila George are on the run after Schur shoots his abusive father who had just killed his mother. They are running from Chris Pratt who is his uncle who wants vengeance on his relations.

It's their fate for the two kids to find shelter in a place Billy The Kid uses as a hideout and he comes there with a posse close behind.

Afterward Pratt catches up with the kids and takes George prisoner. It's then up to young Schur to decide who can help, Pat Garrett or William Bonney,

This is a decent well done western. Hawke makes a properly heroic Garrett, but the recklessness of Billy draws Schur in. Actor Vincent D'Onofrio late of Law And Order Criminal Intent directs this with a brisk style and he has a small part as another sheriff.

I'm sure The Kid will not be the last the big screen sees of Pat and Billy.

Wissenswertes
When The Kid awakens and sees Billy the Kid for the first time, Billy's pose closely duplicates the iconic photo which purports to be one of the very few of him. That photo shows Billy as left-handed, but it is a tintype, and therefore produces a reversed image. As a result, many movies featuring Billy have depicted him as left-handed.

Patzer
At one point, Pat Garrett claims the authority of "the state of New Mexico". At that time, New Mexico was only a Territory.

Zitate
Billy 'The Kid' Bonney: This long, unendin' thing of my soul. Maybe it's my own damn fault what people think of me. Sometimes, when I'm alone, I get this feelin', like nothing's good or ever's gonna be. And I try tellin' myself the feelin' ain't real. I try. But..but deep down, I know. Guess that means ain't no good moment I ever had weren't a lie. You ever feel that way?
Rio Cutler: What way?
Billy 'The Kid' Bonney: The way, like the only reason you ain't afraid what happens next is 'cause you know there ain't nothin' you can do for it to mean a goddamn thing.
Rio Cutler: I know what happens next. And it's the only thing that matters.
Billy 'The Kid' Bonney: Well..I wish I was more like you, kid. I truly do.
