Yet in His grace, He is loving and compassionate toward us. Charles Stanley explains, “We don’t deserve the Lord’s invitation to have an intimate relationship with Him. God does have a throne in Heaven, and it’s a haven for all who believe. My name is written on his heart I know that while in heav'n he stands, no tongue can bid me thence depart.” Charitie Lees Bancroft wrote these beautiful hymn lyrics in 1863, but the powerful truth behind her words is as timeless as Heaven itself.
ANNETTE CHARLES WIKMI MOVIE
This is a minor complaint because this is a very entertaining film and after a summer of watching hyper-kinetic Hollywood junk, It's a movie that is very welcomed.“Before the throne of God above I have a strong and perfect plea, a great High Priest whose name is Love, who ever lives and pleads for me. The film goes on about 15 minutes to long and Costner has not one, but two goodbye scenes with Bening. The romance between Costner and Bening seems forced and Bening looks a little to old to be a woman that never married. Charley states that he doesn't have a problem with killing and we believe him. Costner plays a man with a hard past and he seems to be living his life and coming to grips with his experiences in the war at the same time. Duvall's character is a man of high pride and also a stubborn side and he's not afraid to stand up for himself even if it means he might die.
The characters are well written and they let out things about themselves little by little as the story is told. The scenery is important and gives the film a look that helps you relate to the characters when they speak of not wanting to be told where they can go. The scenery is beautiful and their are so many shots with skylines and mountains and wide open prairies and these shots help tell the story in the film. The film should be seen on the big screen to be appreciated.
Costner allows the story to unfold on its own terms and the pacing is deliberate which is welcomed after watching so many Hollywood films and their quick edits. He seems to have found his mark as a directer with this genre. This film was directed by Costner and its very well made. A final gunfight in town is inevitable and Charley reveals that he killed many men in the war. Boss and Charley don't like to be told where to graze their cattle and they want revenge for the death of Mose. They take him to the local doctor and meet his sister Sue (Annette Bening) and Charley takes a shine. That night they confront them and smash their rifles but when they get back Mose has been killed and Button is wounded badly.
Back at the herd some of Baxters men have been following them so Boss has an idea of going after them instead of running. Baxter controls the sheriff (James Russo) and also has many thugs on his payroll. A rich rancher named Denton Baxter (Michael Gambon) hates "Freegrazers" and tells them to take their man and keep moving. In town they find Mose beaten badly and locked up in the local jail. Boss and Charley go to find him leaving Button (Diego Luna) to watch the herd. They send Mose (Abraham Benrubi) to get supplies and after a day or so he doesn't return. The crew is headed by Boss Spearman (Robert Duvall) and his second in charge is Charley Waite (Costner). Thank you Kevin Costner! This story is about four men who are herding their cattle through a certain area and they stop near a town to get supplies. Some of them are downright unwatchable like "Young Guns" and its sequel but there have been some extremely well made films like "Unforgiven" and "Tombstone" so I'm at a loss as to why more are not made. Why studios don't make more westerns is beyond me.
