BHFALL is not your typical Western: the Wild West is being tamed and here in Texas at the turn of the Century we have a new West; professional rich men who hold a once a year poker game for the highest stakes.
When Henry Fonda rolls in all innocent and joins in the fun begins.
This is great little movie, full of character, and surprises.
My only gripe is the noise is a bit much with everyone delivering their lines at foghorn levels but this has a charm and an energy that it's hard not to enjoy.
Recommended.
