In December 2021, director Jane Campon returned to the camera to offer twilight and iconoclastic Western: dog power. The filmmaker gathered a crazy actor for this work: Benedict Cumberbatch, Kirsten Dunst, Jesse Plemons, Kodi Smit-Mcphee and Thomasin McKenzie.
Rough western
The story tells us the brothers Phil and George Burbank (Cumberbatch and Plemons). Originally from Montana, they are diametrically opposed. As far as the Phil is sophisticated, brilliant and cruel, George is phlegmatic, eticulous and benevolent.
Among them, they perform the largest ranch in the Montana field. The region, from the galloping of the 20th century, where men still consider their femininity and where Bronco Henry is the largest cowboy figure that has ever met.
When George secretly married a rose, a young widow, a tile that was drunk with madness, would destroy it. Then he tries to reach the rose using his son’s peter, a sensitive and disclosed boy as a pike in his sadistic and motionless strategy …
Significant Roll for Cumberbatch
Silver lion for the best director at the 2021 Venice Film Festival, the dog’s power is not Western as another. Excellent landscapes, shot by Jane’s champion with sober virtuoso, is just a beautiful lacquer in this tense story. Benedict Kumberbach has never been more terrible and sadist than in this work that blows and burns the intestines.
The actor, who remembers Daniel Day Lewis in some aspects, will be blood -driven by the film as a terrible crowd, giving us each performance. Until the West, the director organizes a true psychological drama, he is acute in the wrong masculinity that is fed by cruelty as a predatory holiday.
If the story is held in Montana, as well as a different Yellowstone series, the atmosphere is very far from the intrigue of Taylor Sheridan. Everything here is dry and rough and every minute is more tense until no one leaves the result.
