Less a review than curious about some odd similarities. Night riders in the 1880's were in the Klan and terrorized ex-slaves and those who even slightly aided them. They also attacked catholics and immigrants. The bad guy was based on a real man but the heroes are not. These heroes ride at night, wear white outfits, with capes, and hat masks. They steal from the bad guys and give money to poor white people. Admittedly they don't have points on the hat masks but that is a weird coincidence. Especially because this stuff was well-known in the 30's , they were at their largest and most powerful in 1928.

I watched the whole movie, it does the one thing i hate in a movie...it doesn't end. I kept waiting for something, anything, to happen and it never quite does. It is like a depressed teenager wrote it, full of angst and staring with beautiful scenery and plenty of opportunities for absent dad and disinterested mom to really interact with their children but they really don't. And the finale is people walking in unison to nowhere, a waste of good actors.
