"The Ballad Of Buster Scruggs"

If you have Netflix and you have any affinity for the Coen brothers (Fargo, Big Lebowski, True Grit, No Country for Old Men), give up a couple hours and take in The Ballad Of Buster Scruggs.

We watched all of the available stories . What I most liked about them is that they always seemed to have a twist at the end so it took the viewer off guard. l

I liked it. Very gritty. I wasn't sure at first, but I was drawn in.

"Gritty" and "strange" = Coen Bros, most of the time, right?

Probably not my all time favorite of theirs, but what a take they have on the wild, wild West! Loved True Grit with Jeff Bridges.
