timely in appaloosa - and the arroyo government's penchance to release murderers, priest killers, pedophiles and rapists

Sheriff and the loyal assistant (a very cute assistant, that is).


Renee seems to say: Are you a rich convict? Then you have the huge chance of skirting off a criminal conviction under the Arroyo government.

How timely! In "Appaloosa", an 1860's western drama - yes, drama! - a convicted murderer (Jeremy Irons) gets pardoned by the U.S. president before his execution to the consternation of Appaloosa sheriff (Ed Harris) and his loyal cutesie assistant (Viggo Mortensen) who bucked the pressure to do the right thing. Renee Zelwegger plays a role against type - as a boy-crazy damsel who can't seem to decide whose affections to root for. I was quite surprised with this movie which is almost a character study more than the expected spaghetti western. Did they consult with the Arroyo government who seems to relish and have orgasmic contentment commuting prison sentences of rapists, murderers and common criminals.

Of course they favor the moneyed criminals for this. LOL
