At first, trying to picture Alan Ladd as “Ed” was really difficult for me. I was kind of distracted in the beginning for that reason, but slowly they began to blend for me. Ladd did seem perfect for the part, and soon I stopped imagining him riding off into the distance with a little boy calling “Shane!” I liked the representations of the other characters as well, even though they changed a lot (Madvig got a lot younger and suddenly had a sister). I like the filming so far, and the music as well. I’m looking forward to continuing it.
