Wild Bill
1995
**½
Director: Walter Hill
Cast: Jeff Bridges, Ellen Barkin, John Hurt, Diane Lane, David Arquette,

A poor Western biopic about the last days of Wild Bill Hickok. We all know how he died, so it's just a matter of watching and waiting to see where and when he is shot. Jeff Bridges is not able to make the hero interesting. Based on two books, Deadwood by Pete Dexter and Fathers and Sons by Thomas Babe.
