Re: Open Range -- I'm all thumbs!

I agree witcha, except about Benning. She did absolutely zero with that character. I don't know if it's her acting or Costner's directing but the performance was flat as Kansas and the character, potentionally very interesting (an over-the-eligibility single woman living with her brother in a dinky town) was completely undeveloped.

Don't tell me it was the limitation of the script! A good actor develops (imagines) his/her character's backstory and uses it to illuminate the performance of the script, no matter how limited.

I could watch Robert Duvall say his ABCs and not get bored!
