Character actors are awesome. I'll add that episode to my list of ones to look at!
Ahh, I see. That was probably a good decision, to scatter them throughout.
It's neat when reunion movies click like that!
Oh, a couple weeks ago I saw this Gunsmoke episode called Legends Don't Sleep. It was really interesting. On the one side, there was Matt Dillon's view of things, that this criminal had not fully paid for all the wrongs he had done and that he was a completely bad person. On the other side, the viewers saw a kinder side to the criminal when he was trying to look after his aunt and protect this idolizing kid following him around. He seemed to genuinely want to turn his life around, but no one would let him. The full truth probably lies somewhere in between Matt's view and the aunt's and kid's views. He definitely wasn't completely bad, that's for sure. I have to wonder what Matt would have thought if he had realized that the two former gang members Race Fallon killed near the end were trying to kill that kid and Race was trying to protect him.
