Unlike Your Usual Western, Thunderbolt and Lightfoot Captures Something Beautiful

6 min • 18 februari 2022

At the beginning of the film, Thunderbolt is disguised as a preacher, living a life in hiding. He reads a sermon to his church – severe, pithy and deliberated.

“As under the redeemer’s gentle reign, the wolf shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid.”

We immediately cut to the insouciant Lightfoot’s carpe diem gait, buoyant upon the sultry Montana air, a blithe spontaneity to his every step.

Thunderbolt will repeat his same maxim to a new congregation many moons later, in the shape of an unfledged Lightfoot.

Lightfoot asks if it’s a poem.

“No.” Thunderbolt replies. “A prayer.”
