I watched Homesman this weekend. Tommy Lee Jones directed and Luc Besson produced.
Not a good film to take a date and giggle over popcorn but an unpredictable story, not melodramatic or sentimental but fun, tender and a bit mad. The pace is a bit monotonous – it's about a journey over a desert so go figure.
I've never been starving in late the 19th century mid-west but I imagine this film does a pretty good job of recreating that world. The characters and their actions are totally shaped by their harsh landscape. It reminds me of Grapes of Wrath – never a bad thing.
