Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Best for western fans and anyone who loves a strong drama. Leaves you with something to think about. Liked News of the World or Dead Man? This is a good next one.
The mood
Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace
Lets scenes breathe, at 1 hr 29 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1974: an older pace and style.
  • Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.

Saskatchewan, Canada, late 19th century. The negligence of Dan Candy, sergeant of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, allows Almighty Voice, a young Cree warrior, to escape.
