Not an Apathist

Of course, this trailer is intended to sell DVD's, which is why the focus on guns and controversy. In fact, the film bears the same flaw. That old man you see with the long beard, the gentle soul, is the kind of person that first attracted me to the mesa. I am betting he squirms when he sees the film.

It is an indie classic already but while some of the folks that live there love seeing the film the way it is, for reasons varying from personal glory to keeping some people out altogether, I am quite sure that others, instead, writhe in response.

I call this film entertaining - and bad press.
