	A Basic Woodsman Collection (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		With the many overlapping changes that took place over the years, there are a large number of possibilities, as illustrated by my collection of approximately 200 Colt Woodsman pistols including prototypes, experimentals, special order, factory engraved, et cetera.
		The first series Woodsman can be easily recognized by its distinctive profile, which resembles the German Luger in the rakish grip angle.
		The first 1001 Woodsmans of the 3rd series were assigned serial numbers from the end of the 2nd series serial number block, from 146138-S to 147138-S. The numbers then skipped to 160001-S and restarted.

	The Woodsman
		Watching The Woodsman is a highly uncomfortable experience, and that is exactly what first time writer/director Nicole Kassell wants.
		L.I.E., the last film to deal with the same topic, was slapped with the then-dreaded NC-17 rating and disappeared quickly from theaters.
		The main difference this time is that The Woodsman (based on the play by Steven Fetcher) has Kevin Bacon, a star with a much higher profile than Brian Cox.

		Yet The Woodsman isn’t concerned so much with plot as it is with character study, albeit of a paedophile.
		The Woodsman is highly subtle in its dealing of the character with the information coming in drips so that a picture slowly builds, one that is neither conventionally good nor evil and also leaves for surprises.
		Much of what she says is interesting and also produces the odd gem of trivia (the opening credits were wholly influenced by Peckinpah’s The Getaway), but she does have a tendency to concentrate more fully on the technical side of the production than the material itself.

		The Woodsman shows that while every day poses an intense struggle for Walter, those who pile on against him are doing the easy thing, indulging in the selfish gratification of righteousness, the cheap thrill of moral bullying.
		The Woodsman commits a couple of first-time errors, but they are minor flaws in an uncommonly assured and scrupulous film.
		And while Kassell doesn't seem to be operating from a consciously Christian perspective, she arrives at a Christian place, keeping company with a person perceived to be irredeemable, and honoring both his fallenness and his capacity for redemption.

	TheMovieBoy Review - The Woodsman (2004)
		He has met her once before, was drawn to her, and after exchanging words comes to discover something about himself, and the weight of the things he has done in the past, that changes him possibly forever.
		The whole of "The Woodsman" is thought-provoking, to be sure, but for all of the seeming accuracy writer-director Nicole Kassell brings to the project, she is not as skilled in creating a convincing character arc for Walter.
		Where "The Woodsman" suffers is in a conclusion that doesn't conclude much of anything, leaving Walter's circular personality and alleged catharsis in a state of hazy limbo.

	The Woodsman (2004)
		Instead, The Woodsman is a finely crafted character study that asks its audience to empathize with and, perhaps, understand its deeply troubled central character.
		Walter, meanwhile, seeks counsel and guidance from a therapist in the desperate hope that he can someday be “normal.” His self-loathing is apparent, as is his constant struggle to keep his compulsions in check.
		Economical and terrifically restrained, The Woodsman is a powerful film that doesn’t play into typical movie conventions as a way of pandering to the audience.

		The Wensel Woodsman 3-blade design is a true cut-on-contact broadhead that initiates the cut then penetrates almost beyond belief creating an awesome wound channel in the process.

	The Woodsman (2004)
		Walter has done evil things, but he is not necessarily evil and he is clearly, however imperfectly, seeking redemption.
		A lot of credit for the power of The Woodsman has to go to Bacon for bringing out the full range of Walter's humanity, from his ugly impulses to his struggle to overcome them.
		This is a career-defining performance for the actor who became a star two decades ago for his glib turns in Diner and Footloose.

	Kevin Bacon gets serious with ‘The Woodsman’ - MORE MOVIE NEWS AND FEATURES - MSNBC.com
		In “The Woodsman,” Bacon gives a career performance as the most reviled of sex offenders, a child molester coming off 12 years in prison for abusing young girls.
		Though he broke into film as a snooty frat boy in “National Lampoon’s Animal House” and became a teen idol with “Footloose,” Bacon said the dark tone of “The Woodsman” was more in line with his dramatic sensibilities.
		Also an executive producer on “The Woodsman,” Bacon sought to strip down the script to its barest elements to present a shadow of a man living in anguish inside himself, director Kassell said.

	filmcritic.com Movie Review: The Woodsman
		For sheer guts alone, one has to applaud the makers of The Woodsman, who must have suffered ear damage from all the doors slamming in their faces when they went around trying to get the film made.
		In the meantime, Walter tries not to stare at the pre-teen schoolgirls who ride the bus he takes to work, and stares sullenly out his window at the schoolyard across the street (“the only landlord in town who’ll take my money” he remarks to Carlos’s bafflement at his suspicious choice of living quarters).
		The Woodsman loses some of its dark fairy-tale quality towards the end, injecting a few false-seeming notes of heroism that don’t quite mesh with rest of the film’s hard-nosed and realistic point of view.

		If your Woodsman is pre-WWII it will have a pattern on the mainspring housing, where the web between the thumb and forefinger touches when holding the pistol in firing position.
		With the introduction of the 3rd series Woodsman the color of the plastic grips was changed to solid fl, but they were otherwise identical to the late 2nd series brown plastic grips.

		I'm even tempted to say that Kevin was robbed of an Oscar for Best Actor, as no one's going to touch something on the subject of child molesters, but if you get ugly or gain weight for a part, by all means, win an award for something that anyone could've done.
		The Woodsman is just a movie about one former child molester's adaptation to life after serving 12 years in prison.
		Aside from getting poor dvd treatment, The Woodsman is a fantastic movie, but probably something you're only going to watch once or twice.

	IGN: The Woodsman Review
		Like its main character, it seems to be in a state of constant struggle to remain restrained and in control.
		The Woodsman is based on a play, and like so many plays adapted for the screen, it's limited to a few sets and a minimal narrative drive.
		That's because it's more of a study of a flawed man who knows his demons, and we want to see if he can overcome them, even when those flaws are the most heinous imaginable.

	IGN: Woodsman, The Review
		Rather than painting Walter as either a victim or a perpetual perpetrator, Bacon creates a real person with whom we identify – be it via the monotony of his everyday life or the larger context of his conflict between what he wants and what is right.
		The film itself is not a paean to the reformed criminal, an ode to those unfortunate souls who committed crimes and end up paying for them the rest of their lives; rather, it's simply a portrait of humanity, drawn without simplifying or explaining one particular person's problems.
		Since he has become our emotional anchor, rudderless as he may be, Kassell creates a conflict between what we usually expect from our protagonists – namely, that they succeed in their relative quest – and what we know to be right, moral, or appropriate.

		The Woodsman should be pretty intolerable, but the writing-line by line-is heartfelt and probing, the direction gives the actors room to stretch out, and the performances are miraculous.
		But to my surprise, if you were to excise Kyra Sedgwick's left boob from a semi-vigorous lovemaking scene with her real-life husband, this film might've slided by with a "PG-13" rating.
		If you like the woodsman, you'll be tickled to death over a film called the aviator.

		Avoiding fl and white moral ground for a more complex, compassionate view, this unsettling yet redemptive drama depicts its protagonist as a man in a cage, as much a victim as an architect of his obsession.

		For this reformed character, the path to redemption comes strewn with cracked paving stones, which need to be carefully navigated with every tentative step he takes.
		The sensitivity with which the material in THE WOODSMAN is executed derives from a potent mix of intelligently written source material, wonderful performances (with Bacon in particular putting in a career-defining turn), and an authoritative vision from director Nicole Kassell (THE GREEN HOUR).
		A fascinating portrait of a life caught in a state of perpetual turmoil, this is an audacious second feature from Kassell.

	THE WOODSMAN
		This story of a convicted pedophile (played by a sad-faced Kevin Bacon) brings an understanding of the character’s psychology without ever attempting the impossible task of evoking justification or sympathy for him.
		The aim of The Woodsman seems to be to explore the psychology of the pedophile rather than draw any social or moral conclusions.
		Concerns about whether he should be locked up, or how his actions affect his victims, are purposely placed outside of the film’s frame of reference.

		The Woodsman, carpentered to a fault, wrings pathos from Walter's abuse at the hands of would-be woodsmen and then gives him an occasion to unload on a child molester himself.
		It's equally handy that his new girlfriend, Vickie (Kyra Sedgwick), is in the unique position of being able to forgive him for his sins.
		The Woodsman should be pretty intolerable, but the writing—line by line—is heartfelt and probing, the direction gives the actors room to stretch out, and the performances are miraculous.
