Goofs

In the scene at the wedding just before the dancing begins, Tyler Ross is talking with a redheaded lady. Then when the dancing starts you can see that lady dancing with an older man. The camera then pans to where Tyler, who is *still* talking with the same lady (who's also dancing) is taken by his sister to meet her new husband's great aunt. So the redhead is in two places at once!

User Reviews

This went Straight to my heart! Lovely!

I have to agree-Andrew has aged extremely well. I have a "thing" for cowboys and Andrew stepped right into my heart with this one. Wow! I have always liked his movies but this one "straight from the heart" sort of grabbed me (ya know?). Made me want to be younger and live in Wyoming. What a sap! I'm really looking forward to the next one. Just can't say enough good stuff about this film.
