I agree with what you both are saying but for Open Range, do you think the K.Costner character would’ve been better if he portrayed his character more like a ranch hand who’d never experienced a gunfight and rose to the challenge rather than an ex-gunfighter? That’s who Costner plays most realistically. Think “Field of Dreams.” Anyway, just my thoughts.
