Gareth C @Capagee 5h A tense trip for an hour 40. The dynamic between the seasoned hunter, the doddering police chief and the inexperienced fbi agent are great and they play out in interesting ways throughout the movie See more @amandawrites Dec 19 When an Indigenous woman is found dead in the snow on a reservation, the local police - struggling to deal with the tribe and showing deep ignorance toward a vulnerable community - call for help from a lone, cold and calculating hunter who knows the land better than anyone but also is haunted by his own demons. A dramatic thriller that goes far beyond a standard mystery, Wind River is driven by writer Taylor Sheridan’s sharp, raw and unflinching gaze, which powerfully dissects a social issue long ignored: the vulnerability of Indigenous communities, consistently treated as outsiders. With tense, electrifying, and emotionally charged action, the film is anchored by Jeremy Renner’s commanding performance as the lead. Elizabeth Olsen also delivers a solid turn but is ultimately overshadowed by Renner’s mastery in portraying a morally complex character. The film’s final ten minutes are brutal and unexpected, leaving a bitter aftertaste - because in the end, was justice truly served?

The investigation takes many turns and ends with a statement that no tracking of missing Native Americans occurs in the U,S.. Things must have changed since 2017 because there are now statistics starting in 2020. See more Movie N. @movienightnurse Dec 5 Taylor Sheridan handled this with so much respect. See more Mitchell C Nov 29 What can pass as a standard murder-mystery instead becomes a remarkably complex exploration of various malaises, including the agony of familial loss, the systematic disenfranchisement of Native Americans, and the ever-present evil of toxic masculinity.
