It made me cry and then I went up to taylor Sheridan my new favorite man alive aka a good screenwriter and director and told him
He
Made
Me
Cry and he said that's a goal and then I asked him if I could hug him and he said absolutely and it was precious

Speechless.

During the entire final 25 minutes I sat there stiff as a board with my jaw on the floor. Some of the most intense stuff I've ever seen in a movie.

Wind River has compelling characters, engaging story, beautiful visuals, and outstanding performances.

Jeremy Renner, Elizabeth Olsen, and Graham Greene all knock it out of the freaken park. If Renner doesn't get an Oscar Nomination, it will be an absolute travesty.

You would think Taylor Sheridan has been directing for YEARS!

i’m willing to ignore how poorly written the women characters are because its overarching message about the prevalence of violence against native women is nowhere near discussed as much as it should be. 

however, i can’t ignore the fact that the protagonist is ... a white man. worse, it’s jeremy renner. if the lead was a native woman, even a native man, this would’ve been revolutionary. i understand that there is pressure to cast famous (white) actors in order to get funding from studios, but is it worth undermining your film’s political meaning?

women are a fucking force. elizabeth olsen is an angel. jon bernthal is an angel. SHE RAN SIX MILES IN THE SNOW. I FUCKING. BYE.

Both a powerhouse directorial debut and another absolutely stunning piece of writing from Taylor Sheridan, Wind River is without question one of the best films of the year thus far, with well-written and fully developed characters, excellent performances, fantastic atmosphere, superb tension, well-staged set pieces, gripping direction, strong pacing, sweeping cinematography, and brilliantly constructed storytelling.

"What struck me during the film, and after the film had ended, was how assured a debut this was for Sheridan. It is as confident and as good a debut as I’ve seen since Steve McQueen’s ‘Hunger’ or Ryan Coogler’s ‘Fruitvale Station’"

Wind River, similar to Sicario and Hell or High Water, is much better than it has a right to be. The excellent writing and performances infuse this simple tale with a dark intensity and deep melancholy which carry the film's message about a group too often ignored by the main stream. This combined with the expert cinematography make this movie worth watching for fans of the thriller and western genres.

Very good film, but I think some character's were not used to their full ability

Man the final shootout in this movie is so goddamn good .

A great film with a lot of emotion.

Tyler Sheridan frappe fort avec ce retour à la mise en scène, cette fois pourvu d'un de ses scénarios sombres et déchirants dans la veine de ses écrits pour SICARIO et HELL OR HIGH WATER. Fascinant, captivant et bouleversant en même temps, tout en nous servant un suspense policier de taille. À voir.

Dear Mr. Sheridan, whatever you're writing/directing next, I'll be there to watch it. Sincerely, me.

The Poster Challenge | June 2018 | Task #19

Kurzweiliger und stark gespielter Thriller in verschneiter, schöner Landschaft. Ohne eigene Ideen wird hier trotzdem eine durchweg spannende Story erzählt, aber mit einem altbekannten Ende. Schade das dabei sogar manch Nebencharakter vergessen wird.

Another dark piece of truth about natives in america. Nice cold atmosphere and in parts stunning performance by Renner. Unfortunately the realistic tone was somehow harassed by some artificial dialogue and moments.
