Subject: RE: Contemporary Film as Ballad Updated
Having just read the story, all I can say is I hope the movie is better. Maybe it's just me, but I don't care for her rushed and jumbled style, plus I think there are better uses of the language to convey speech patterns of Wyoming cowboys. Her dialogue is just a little off from what my ear heard all those years of growing up there and my adult years spent there. From what I've heard of the movie, it conveys much more than her story.
