Plot Synopsis
Storyline
Yang, the world's finest swordsman, packs it in and leaves Japan to find an old friend in the Wild West rather than kill the infant queen of a rival clan. He carries the baby to his friend's desolate, broken-down town; the friend has died, so Yang reopens a laundry and settles down, hanging wet clothes, growing flowers, raising the infant, and finding himself attracted to Lynne, a red-haired woman with a tragic past. As long as Yang keeps his sword sheathed, his rivals won't find him, but a band of reprobate gunmen terrorize the town and threaten Lynne. Showdowns are inevitable, but once the sword is drawn, can Yang find rest, a home, and a family? Written by <jhailey@hotmail.com>

Ronald: Okay, you settled down? You got your ears open?

Ronald: This is the story of the sad flute, a laughing baby, a weeping sword. A long long time ago, in a land far far away, there lived a warrior. A warrior with empty eyes.

Trivia
Scott Reynolds did some re-writing on the script, mostly concentrated on some action sequences and a lot of the dialogue for the actors. Reynolds was especially proud of some of the evil lines he wrote for The Colonel (Danny Huston). See more »Goofs
Ronald and another man are at the old ferris wheel during the big battle against the Colonel and his men. Ronald loads a bullet into his rifle with his bare finger. In the next shot, he is firing the gun while wearing black gloves that are completely intact. See more »Quotes

I absolutely loved this movie. It's one of those I wanted to go back and see again the next day. Definitely buying it (and I don't like many movies enough to buy them).
I like that it has tonnes of effective symbolism (would make a GREAT film for a film study) and I love the western/samurai cross. Finally a movie with the right amount of gore! It's so hard to find a movie with the right amount of gore. It's exciting without going overboard. I really liked the ending as well.
Although the sword action could've been better visually; it was accurate. The story line a little predictable (but, really, what HASN'T been done already but easy enough to follow.
I would recommend this a movie to watch alone or with your someone. The balance between passion and action is perfect.
