Despite AmericaвЂ™s mythology of and fascination with the вЂњwild west,вЂќ movies and TV shows cherry pick these outlaws and cowboys-and they tend to all look the same.Д®di Gathegi, who plays real-life cowboy Bill Pickett, said in an interview with ESSENCE that the history itself had been robbed. The fidelity to historical person-at least nominally-was important to the cast and crew, as many of these cowboys and outlaws have been absent from public awareness. It also makes Cherokee Bill ( LaKeith Stanfield) a real person who existed, too (he went by Cherokee Bill, but his real name was Crawford Goldsby).

(The exact feud between them: maybe not so real.) And it makes gang leader Rufus Buck ( Idris Elba) also real. Existed.вЂќ That makes cowboy Nat Love ( Jonathan Majors) real.

Or, as the opening text of the Netflix film makes clear: вЂњWhile the events of this story are fictional.These. Set in the American West during the late 19 th century, The Harder They Fall is a cavalcade of bloodshed spilled by real historical persons-but while the people are historical, the specific nature of the bloodshed is not.
