“Old Henry” (** out of four) was a logy Western about a farmer (Tim Blake Lewis) who takes in an injured man (Scott Haze) with a satchel of cash but when a violent posse (led by Stephen Dorff) comes looking for him and puts his family in jeopardy, he is forced to question whether to turn him over and save his family or keep his honor and protect what is right. Gorgeously shot by John Matysiak and does have some nice moments of lyrical elegy but is too lumbering and laconic to achieve much more desired impact. Dorff stands out as usual as the sardonic villain.
