Billy Bob Thornton's ALL THE PRETTY HORSES is about John Grady Cole (Matt Damon), a young rancher growing up just after WWII. After his mother sells the family ranch, John convinces his best friend, Lacey Rawlins (Henry Thomas), to accompany him to Mexico, where ranching is still a big part of life. Along the way they meet Jimmy Blevins (Lucas Black), a winningly enthusiastic boy with a volatile nature. Eventually, John and Lacey end up on a huge ranch south of the border, where John falls for the wealthy rancher's daughter (Penélope Cruz). This leads to deadly trouble for the two young men, but John won't be dissuaded from pursuing his new love. Thornton has made a credible modern Western with this film, which gets strong performances from Damon, Cruz, Thomas, and, in a star-making turn, Black as the fiery Blevins. ALL THE PRETTY HORSES is at its best when focusing on the dusty details of the ranchers' hard existence. Barry Markowitz's cinematography and Ted Tally's script (based on Cormac McCarthy's much-loved novel) capture a sweet and melancholy flavor in depicting a way of life that seemed long since lost even while a hardy few were still living it.

Editorial reviews
"...[An] indisputably great component is Lucas Black, who is thoroughly authentic..." USA Today - p.4D - Mike Clark (12/20/2000)
"...An authenticity that is consistently invigorating thanks to taut, finely-tuned contributions from both cast and crew..." Box Office - p.67-8 - Wade Major (03/01/2001)
"...It tells the tale in a straightforward, sincere manner....The emotional effect is profound..." Sight and Sound - p.38 - Edward Buscombe (03/01/2001)
"...The film is handsomely mounted....Damon is well-cast and does solid work..." Los Angeles Times - p.F1 - Kenneth Turan (12/25/2001)
"...An elegiac Western....It's about the mythical idea of heading south on a good horse....What makes its special is how Thornton modulates the material..." Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (12/22/2000)
