    I feel like people still haven’t caught on to how good Let Him Go is. Released shortly after theaters opened back up in 2020, it is a clear casualty of pandemic era film distribution woes but would have been a likely modest hit any other time, and especially so in the 90s. Costner is always on.

    Cotton Comes to Harlem is one of those rare works that's both a great movie and a great novel, by Chester Himes. Some of his other novels include If He Hollers Let Him Go, The Real Cool Killers, Blind Man with a Pistol, and The End of a Primitive.

    Last four watched #Letterboxd War Machine - Cool Netflix action flick. Sisu 2 - Over-the-top sequel, goofy fun. Citizen Vigilante - Uwe Boll garbage film, embraced by garbage people. Let Him Go - Emotional slow burn thriller anchored by its veteran leads.

    Guns blazing. Damn. Watched Let Him Go this week. A cast of total pros and an intense film. Violent. Not A-Team violent, but like digit removal. The group I watched it with enjoyed it. #tcmparty

    Where to start? The Windermere Children by Alex Baranovski. Let Him Go by Michael Giacchino - I will never see the film as the synopsis looks horrific, but the music is spectacular. Most things by Giacchino actually although I would like to kick him in the shins for the opening to Up.

    Started watching “Let Him Go” with Diane Lane and Kevin Costner on a flight and had to turn it off. Immediately started searching Twitter for a spoiler. I still don’t know what happened in the last 30 minutes of that movie. 😩

    With #DuttonRanch bringing #Yellowstone back to life (Marshals is poor let's face it), I want to return to #LetHimGo. I loved the film when I saw it but haven't been back since first viewing. Here's what I thought the first time!

    alright. The stars aligned and we could actually like watch the movie. Let Him Go (2021) quite good. If 1950s gothic noir western is a sub-genre, it is it

    This is a movie that may have been better told as a mini-series. There is a lot of story available to mine for the entire cast of characters. The movie does a good job of bringing those characters to life, but it still feels like it's only scratching the surface; only giving you a glimpse of what it's like for those characters. The movie is based on a novel, and I'm now more likely to go read the novel to see if more is revealed.
