I thought Geoffrey Rush was dead, he’s not. Good on him for still being alive.

I look forward to the RLM review of this.

Lithgow can play a psycho like few others can. I guess even crazed killers retire and go to a home when they get old enough. Weird take, but ok. Two amazing actors has me intrigued, context of story gives me pause.

Edit - will the big reveal be what's under the doll???

I saw an Oriental movie a few months ago about a samurai who flees to the old West, and Rush was in it. It even had that famous black midget. Was a pretty fun movie even if it was pretty absurd.

I can't for the life of me remember the name though. I was just shocked that he was in it.

Think I watched it and Soloman Kane around the same time. Tony Cox from Bad Santa and 50k other things is the famous black midget.

That might be it. It was a wonderful film. I highly recommend it.

I also have all of the Howard Solomon Kane short stories, and the movie is pretty good or at least somewhat close to the short stories from back in the twenties or thirties.
