Billy Bob Thornton's first directorial effort since his award-winning Sling Blade is a marvelously photographed adaptation of Cormac McCarthy's novel about two young Texas ranch hands (Matt Damon and Henry Thomas) who ride to Mexico to find work in the late 1940s. Along the way, they are joined by a third cowboy (Lucas Black) whose presence will spell trouble for them in the future, especially after Damon's character becomes romantically involved with the beautiful daughter (Penelope Cruz) of a rich Mexican land owner. Thornton originally delivered a much longer cut (well over 3 hours) of the film, which was rejected by the studio, but even at its current length it remains a richly detailed, classical American western. Also starring Ruben Blades, Bruce Dern and Sam Shepard. Music by Marty Stuart. Billy Bob Thornton---USA---2000---112 mins.
