Although I did not see the movie, what brings my attention to this post are the NAMES. I am going to post a link for readers to actually see that this movie might seem fictional, and is not. Remember, at this time, the government was very busy doing the things they do today. Western expansionism, Indians loosing sovereignty, etc. I am posting because I believe that we are on a time table, with the Bible. The question may be asked, " Are we reliving Deadwood today as it was in 1870"? Factually Yes! To readers, pay particular to the names and events. And remember, this was BEFORE the Industrial Revolution. The 15th Amendment was passed, with the 16th Amendment coming later, which gave the Government unlimited power over our currency. This can be cross referenced with your thread regarding Gog and Magog.

I might add that these events are factual and not opinions. Happy reading.

Trixie
Trixie (Paula Malcomson) is Al Swearengen's favorite girl at the Gem. Swearengen is often abusive toward her, but she always returns to him and he in turn often shows great affection for her, though not openly.

Despite her rather frank and foul mouthed nature, she is one of the more compassionate members of the camp. When she is nursing Alma and Sofia, she helps Alma kick her dope habit against the wishes of Swearengen. She attempts suicide afterward believing that Al will kill her for going against his wishes. Despite her insubordination, Swearengen is most angry because of this attempt to kill herself.

In an effort to get out from under Al, she acknowledges Sol Star's affection toward her and sleeps with him, the symbolic ending of her relationship with Al, though Al keeps the two apart by forcing Star to pay for their time together.

The relationship between Trixie and Star is rekindled when she nurses him back to health after he is shot and with whom she eventually finds employment and romance, but remains devoted to Swearengen and reports back to him on Star's and Bullock's activities and disguising her true feelings for Star. She starts to work at the Hardware store learning accounts. By Season 3 she is working for Alma at the bank.

She is friends with Ellsworth and on learning that he has been killed marches to the Grand Hotel to shoot Hearst in retaliation, with her top undone to take attention away from her face. She shoots him in the shoulder but does not kill him. Hearst wants her killed in retaliation but Al will not allow it. Instead he kills another whore, Jen, who resembles her to placate Hearst.

Although the character is not based on a single real-life person, the scene of her putting a bullet through the skull of a violent client who astounds all by clinging to life for another half hour, is based on an actual report by John S. McClintock of such an occurrence involving a prostitute at the Gem Theater named "Tricksie", including the doctor's inserting a probe through the hole in the man's skull.
