註釋Satisfied with the occasional gig, underachieving musician Cooper gets by doing bulldozer work for the ranchers of his West Texas town, Uvalde. After Cooper's bulldozer unearths a skeleton from the town's Wild West past, an accidental head injury sends him back in time to fight for his life. Despite experiencing a street shootout, a saloon showdown, and a Comanche raiding party, Cooper is reluctant to return to the twenty-first century, if he can figure out how. When I read the screenplay of Uvalde, I was immediately drawn to it. Larry Brotherton's writing is authentic and possesses a warm quality that is inviting and kept me turning the pages. In addition, although his portrayal of the West is fictional, it juxtaposes beautifully and almost poetically with the factual element of the story. He makes the real-life Quanah Parker someone we could not only relate to, but would genuinely like to meet. The material is something that stays with you and makes you ponder a very essential turning point in American history. Needless to say, I am a big fan of Larry Brotherton and Uvalde.
