Bridges is a legend but I tell ya Pine is great in every role I’ve seen him in, just goes about his business working on his craft, much like Bridges in his younger years

[@davidgaudreau6834]

Bridges was nominated for best supporting actor for this role……

[@inventgineer]

It's such a testament to how drastically the writers, directors, and financiers of a film dictate the performance of the actor. It can be a great, established actor that plays a terrible stupid role in a terrible movie....or taking actors thought previously not very good, and draw TREMENDOUS performances out of them. A super good example of this is the 2013 Scorsese movie, "Silence", wherein Andrew Garfield and Adam Driver, who have both delivered pretty lackluster performances in other things?......absolutely KILL it -SO much deep, believable emotions, captured particularly well with great cinematography! Y'all definitely need to check it out, it's a masterpiece. And, again, it is a tremendous example of how the director and other people in charge of the film can, in fact, make or break the acting, pretty much regardless of the actors.

[@marimonda8]

Its simplicity is its strength. It's a great film.

[@TG-ld8hl]

I always thought it was such a nice touch that after Chris Pine tells his ex about the hogs, he turns to Jeff Bridges and explains what he’s talking about. That’s a really polite courtesy to extend to a man you were potentially just about to kill

However just like the characters feel this isn’t over the audience feels that to and then they talk again. There the real intentions come out he’s haunted by it and bridges tells him it’s never guna go away and you can feel that fire that he knows he will probably die trying to avenge his partner but he doesn’t care.

[@stsamurai_]

What makes this scene great is when Bridges realizes that Pine is willing to go to jail or die for his kids if it means saving them from a fate similar to his own- since he doesn’t own or live on the property. If he had shot Bridges right there - he’d be charged with straight up murder since there is no “trespassing”. I think this is what really made Bridges understand Pine’s character’s morals and motives.

[@eminkurtovic5477]

What makes you think that? Pine's character is the property owners' father, and close family member. He's well within his rights to shoot some crazy, armed old man (his story) who refuses to leave his loved ones' property. The movie's set in Texas, not California. You're allowed to defend anyone anywhere from serious threats, not just yourself on your own property. If that's even allowed in California.

[@treyb1919]

You misunderstand Texas law. Neighbors can defend each other's property with deadly force if necessary.

[@beardog7020]

“You’ll never be done with it no matter what. It’s gonna haunt you, son for the rest of your days. But you won’t be alone. It’s gonna haunt me, too” Some pretty brilliant writing going on here. Hamilton knows that Toby’s heists had some good intentions behind them (only taking the bank’s money, not spending the money on luxury, and doing it seemingly for his family), but none of that matters anymore because the plan which he set in motion ended with the loss of innocent life. Any sense of morality which Toby initially possessed is down the drain now that he is responsible for a handful of deaths. But the brunt of the guilt isn’t laid entirely on Toby’s end as the ex-sheriff essentially dragged his partner out to chase these guys which ended in his death as well. Hamilton is the only one who knows that Toby was involved, but he doesn’t have the proof to show for it. This standoff is between two men, riddled with guilt, who are the remnants of a phenomenon which has ended in the minds of everybody else. Two men who have finished their respective fights only left with a personal vendetta against each other. A lesser film would’ve ended with a violent standoff where it’s made obvious that one has killed the other, but this one concludes with a string of dialogue that puts our own values in check. Who do we care for more? The newbie criminal who only did what he did to drag his family out of the depths of poverty or the retired lawman whose dedication for justice will lead him to skirt outside of the law and kill if that need be.

Seems like Sheridan does his best with things that have an ending, versus an ongoing series. Yellowstone was fine for like the first 2, maybe 3 seasons, before it went stale and became just another soap opera. Characters stopped evolving, and some even went backwards in development or were forgotten completely. It went from "everyone has their own demons" to "Jaime is cause of all our problems".

Shiner bock. Good beer

[@BlkHunterGatherer]

Something that’s always bothered me is that it’s not clear where Bridges character carried his gun. Assuming it’s where I, and everyone I know that carries, carries our guns which is on our waistband, it would be tucked behind his shirt. Regardless if it’s at the 4 o’clock or appendix, that pistol tucked behind a shirt drawn from a seated position is a death sentence in a duel against a man standing with a cocked lever rifle in his hands. I always thought if this was real, Marcus would at least shift so he could get to his gun quicker. Watching this clip for the 1000th time, I’m thinking it’s an ankle holster which would explain why he’s seated that way and the tapping of his right hand after the challenge. Maybe that’s obvious to most but I appreciate the movie leaving that to interpretation. That adds another level of gravity to the scene. The way way he sat down, tossed his hat on his boot, and accepted a Shiner like it was a casual day at the park but also positioning his hand near his ankle knowing it was a 50/50 chance he was going to get in Wild West duel that’ll end in killing or being killed and as far as Marcus is concerned, that’s fine too. It departs from the two pistols at dawn western movie trope where the characters walk in the street and suspense is built with slow motion shots and music so that the audience knows the characters are getting mentally ready for the showdown. When you think about it, for hardened people, having a beer and then killing each other just for an ounce of closure is more believable. I just found another reason to love this movie.
