Damir; thats a little confusing. Do you mean that we should forgive the illegal aliens?
Or does that mean something to do with the movie?
The movie is about an aging ex-gunfighter who is trying to build a life farming but he is a miserable farmer and is not successfull. The fundamental point of the movie was that the wild west of gunfighters and heroes was more of a myth and sham than truth. That most of the so-called dead shots were either drunk or lucky; thats why Doc Holiday carried a shotgun. The movie seeks to shed some light on the gritty/grimey/nasty sort of life it was on the Prarrie and the desert and the way that truth is distorted to make events resemble something more heroic and substantial than what really occured.
So how does that frame this response?
