One of the things that struck us was the rather odd inclusion of the Silver Kid's backstory in the prologue since it robs his character of any mystery when he emerges in his pistolero outfit - I mean we probably were not meant to find the persona all that equivocal but perhaps they could have introduced that part of the story as a flashback. <br /><br />The problem is, as you say, that he isn't the real protagonist but I suppose they wanted to get Murphy on screen earlier.<br /><br />Great fun for kids in us all.Sergio (Tipping My Fedora)http://bloodymurder.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527967.post-834277953761519992012-02-14T08:23:11.151-06:002012-02-14T08:23:11.151-06:00My Mom was a great fan of Audie Murphy.

I miss calling her on Saturday morning and hearing what she was watching that day.pattinase (abbott)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02916037185235335846noreply@blogger.com
