It's nothing much, it's not really "music related", it's just something I've been trying to upload for the last 4 months, nothing too serious...

So here it is finally, the long awaited Rocky Raccoon, the Story:
That was like The Shawshenk Redemption (one of my favorite movies) meets the Wild West!

I like the sound of crashing glass followed by suspenseful music. I could feel the suspense. I also liked the scene of Nancy and Rocky sitting with their mugs by the frying pan, and the sound of the thunk of the pistol butt being used to nail up the "Wanted" Poster.

But I am confused about one plot element: how did Rocky *know* Eldorado Jo was planning to kidnap Nancy? Rocky seems to have been jumping to conclusions there, although it is likely that in domestic violence cases a former lover escaped from prison might hunt down his partner to kidnap her, or worse. I suppose perhaps I'm looking for too much logic in a short movie that begins with a woman being rescued...from a kitten!
