Hard watch
There's not one likable character in this film. I realize it is supposed to take place in an oppressed culture, but they try to force it on you with bad accents and too much profanity all around. I don't believe their love-story at all. It's more about lust, confirmed by the lyrics in the last song "she left me with my --- in my hand". And to resort to not one but TWO coincidences in the end of the film, where everyone just happens to find each other at the same place at the same time for a very confusing grand finale... made me laugh outloud! But I don't think I was supposed to
Cowboys and Indians
So happy I found this film. Great story well told. The cinematography is absolutely stunning. A riveting story that will keep you guessing. Ian McCrudden's acting feels so real. The soundtrack is great too. Really enjoyed this one.
Cowboys & Indians
Not for sissies. Powerful film, reminiscent of Cormac McCarthy. Compelling. Excellent movie. Sticking to my ribs the next day and who knows for how long. To my beleaguered sensibilities. More of McCrudden’s presentations of the realities we’d rather ignore or sublimate. If you like his Mr. Smith Gets a Hustler, as I did, then you’ll probably like this movie. Definitely worth eight bucks and the hour and a half.
