Synopsis

Three strong-willed women strive to forge their own paths amidst the wide-open plains of the American Northwest: a lawyer forced to subdue a troubled client; a wife and mother whose plans to construct her dream home reveal fissures in her marriage; and a lonely ranch hand who forms an ambiguous bond with a young law student.

Alicia I love this movie so much
Ceticultsot Beautiful, moving film.
FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
xhidden99 Which is both telling and sad. Telling because there's nothing in the movie of any substance or meaning. And sad because there is no plot. All that's left for the reviewer is to retell the scenes. I felt I was being trolled by the writer director by being forced to watch nothing until I had some kind of reaction. Like Freudian therapy where the therapist says nothing in an effort to upset the patient into a 'breakthrough. In any case you will watch and watch and watch and ultimately feel the experiment is you. Alternatively the movie is so indie that everyone is supposed to think it's genius, a new art form even, so that no one will ever mention that the emperor has no clothes. On a technical level there's no backing music, the sound of tinny and flat, if the lighting is natural then Montana gets less sun than Scotland. The camera work is good. At least there's no shaky cam. There's very little dialog but the interminable lengths of scenes isn't as irritating as you would think. They're just pointless.The acting is sturdy enough though all the cheering that this is a master class in acting is off. Laura Dern really is one dimensional. Michelle Williams really is one dimensional. Kirsten Stewart is the personification of bored robotic stoner 'drama'. All in all the movie is like an existentialist play where all the characters are dead and in hell but they don't know it, spending eternity in a dull dead entropic nothing where nothing happens
joelashley-704-631621 This movie's meaning totally escaped us. There appears to be 3 somehow related "plots", but none are decipherable much less the overall meaning the writers were trying to convey. We both dozed at various points, the wife in fact snoozed the last 20 minutes ... we'll, she didn't actually miss much. The acting was okay, except for the super long, drug-out scenes of a lone actor just staring, or endless facial shots of someone driving. What possible life-changing enlightenment is one supposed to derive from that is beyond me, but today's directors and editors seem to think they are adroitly hitting us with ploys as ingenious as Hitchcock or Ford. Not.
sergelamarche Independant women like this are a dime a dozen in Canada, especially in the french community. Dependant women are rare! Check french canadian films. So this film was quickly boring after the first segment with Laura Dern. I gave it one more star because the acting was quality.
gianni_valenza I'm italian and the only purpose I can see in this movie, besides wasting two hours of my life watching it, is to let me understand how empty and boring some american lives are.My message to the director: please do a favour to yourself and to everybody else and change employment, for example find a ranch and attend horses...
