Submit Review"Deadwood" is back, and as Al Swearengen would say, it’s about bleeping time.
The show that died too young is now a film, and the return trip in "Deadwood: The Movie" — set some 10 years later — gets down to unfinished business in the once lawless town in South Dakota.
On this week’s show, host Mark Olsen (@IndieFocus) talks with Ian McShane, the actor who brought the corrupt, foul-mouthed Al Swearengen to life, as well as the director, Daniel Minahan, who captured the now older and wiser characters meeting up again in a Deadwood poised on the edge of legitimacy.
Diehard fans are sure to be pleased, especially since the series was unceremoniously canceled in 2006, leaving so many loose ends — and in spite of its critical acclaim. But Minahan also told Olsen that he made a film with an eye towards drawing newcomers to the show’s original three seasons.
McShane says it wasn’t a challenge to reprise his role - Swearengen is the kind of character people don’t forget.
