00:09:48 ◼   ► where where is people just pop onto the [TS]

00:09:51 ◼   ► screen for kind of comic effect and [TS]

00:09:53 ◼   ► feels like early coen brothers in that [TS]

00:09:54 ◼   ► way there's there's use of a lot of a [TS]

00:09:56 ◼   ► zoom shots and and I I kind of wonder [TS]

00:10:00 ◼   ► how much influence that had on them [TS]

00:10:02 ◼   ► early on maybe none whatsoever but it's [TS]

00:39:47 ◼   ► how hard it is to get a nucleus of [TS]

00:39:49 ◼   ► people together because nobody wants to [TS]

00:39:51 ◼   ► go first but I think also it's the [TS]

00:39:53 ◼   ► alienating nature of being the the law [TS]

00:39:56 ◼   ► on the frontier I think it's a part of [TS]
