The wild west generated some pretty wild coincidences.

  1. If that were in a film it would be laughed out of the theater. How contrived! Ridiculous!

  2. I'd watch a movie like that. So, it's either a silly coincidence, or they were meant to be together.

    1. I'd say it's sort of Jungian (synchronicity and all that).

  3. Vaguely reminded me of this:
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sommersby
    except in Sommersby the local shoemaker was courting the widow until her apparently not-dead husband returned. But the shoemaker discovers this returned husband's shoes are TWO SIZES BIGGER than his old ones! (cue sinister music)

  4. Rebecca, if Disney made the movie, it would have be a bit different. She would have decided she was transgender, and a man, and to keep the fairy tale ending he became gay while in the Army so they can live happily everafter.
    With no icky kids, of course.
