Movie Rating
Disappointing even though it's based on a terrifying true story
I was looking forward to watch this film given that the story of Johnny Frank Garrett is on par with the real life mysteries of Amityville and The Omen. However, the film completely missed the point and went straight to a Rob Zombie type horror film.

Garrett was executed in reality in 1992 following the rape and murder of a nun. On what many believe shoddy evidence, he was found guilty despite proclaiming his innocence throughout. His last words were chillingly prophetic as much of what he said allegedly came true.

Many of those involved in the case including jury members met mysterious deaths as well as their family members post-execution. And this is where this filmmaker came in. Instead of exploring the connections and insanity of the deaths itself, he turns Garrett into a demon-like character which makes the whole film a bit of a joke. What a disappointment.
  
Young Guns II (1990)
Young Guns II (1990)
1990 | Action, Western
"You rode a 15 year old boy straight to his death ... and the rest of us straight to hell"
1990 'Brat pack' western movie, purporting to tell a fictionalised retelling of the last days of William H Boney aka Billy the Kid, shot down by the sheriff Pat Garrett.

I have no idea how much of this is fictionalised n and how much is fact: I do know that sheriff Pat Garrett is supposed to have shot Billy the Kid in the back, but as for the backstory that he used to ride with him ...?

Anyway, this now shows its age, although the soundtrack is as great as ever!
  
Blue Madonna  by Børns
Blue Madonna by Børns
2018 | Alternative, Indie
The second album from the rapidly ascendent synth-pop star Garrett Borns offers more of the same: great ideas constrained in songs that rarely allow them to come to fruition.
By Katherine St. Asaph
Original Score - 5.7

"Opposites attract. The outlaw biker and the accountant. Straightlaced vs straight to hell. Or heaven, depending on how you look at it."

Movie Favorite

"It seems I’ve been watching Children of Paradise all my life. I remember taking my son to see it when he was seven. When I was trying to convince Brando to play Garrett in Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid, he told me that, along with the master swordsman in Seven Samurai, the thief in Children of Paradise was the greatest performance on film. I came to Port of Shadows much later in my life, and the Criterion transfer really enhanced its beauty. Jean Gabin became a prototype for me of a kind of actor difficult to find today. And the dialogue inspired me to attempt to re-create its poetic realism."
