Wind River (2017)

On the show this week we discuss Wind River from 2017. This is the directorial debut of writer/actor/Paramount+ benefactor Taylor Sheridan. It's the third in his trilogy about the modern American frontier (along with Sicario and Hell or High Water), which makes it perfect for this month's 21st-Century Westerns theme. With a compelling story and pitch-perfect cast, we had a lot of fun talking about this one. ____________________STILL TO COME DURING 21ST CENTURY WESTERNS MONTH:5/19: 3:10 to Yuma Double Feature (1957 and 2007, directed by Delmer Davies and James Mangold)5/26: No Country for Old Men (2007, directed by Joel and Ethan Coen)On Letterboxd?
