A Ninth Viewing Observation
Brown Eyes:
Bumping this great old thread.
:D
I wonder if this thread could win an award someday for being the thread with the most meandering topic.
;D
serious crayons:
Well, the subject line keeps it pretty open. And many of those who contributed are well beyond their ninth viewing by now! ;D

So am I! But the two cowboys behind Alma jr. were new to me. Now I'll just have to watch it again. ::)
Brown Eyes:
Yeah, I think those two cowboys are an interesting detail and something I truly never noticed until the still was posted here. And, for sure, I'm well, well beyond the 9th viewing. Lost count months ago.
I love the background activity in this film. One of the best aspects of the cinematography I think. Almost like little subliminal messages that enhance the understanding of a given scene (all the black hats and white hats, different pairings of figures, nuzzling horses, etc.).

hey Amanda,
I've just looked at this picture again. There are two cowboys, one sitting down and one standing up. But there's also a woman at the table. I couldn't help but notice that she has exactly the same hair colour as Alma junior.
:o :o
Is this what Alma thought should/could have been? Her sitting in a bar having a drink with her dad and his partner?
Maybe I'm seeing things... :-\ but then again, there are no coincidences in this movie.
