What to do, but another film Taylor Seredina on the presentation is strongly reminiscent of a school report on the subject of American Ethnography, sociology and criminology. But as any academic work, "Windy river" stands out especially informative and dry statement of the facts, but it lowers hopelessly emotional and artistic overtones of the story. In light — only the bleak twilight of Wyoming, its indigenous people and the rebellious inevitability of human destiny.
No wonder hero Jeremy Renner resignedly concludes: "In our area, the luck usual". Thus, what is happening in this frozen earth is black or white. No halftones. Here awaits the traveler only joy, but in some moments just mount. Slinking around a lonely death and simultaneously — a spark of new life. People in more Indians at the nationality, resigned to a kind of pendulum of karma and others perceive the events from the ironic reverie. A similar motif, apparently acute for Americans permeates in the film almost every subject. Well, a slight touch of social and domestic chaos of local towns with their reclusive philosophy, ethnic relations and a fatal habit to solve problems using a weapon, add such an unknown for the viewer the color.
In terms of the stories told by Sheridan eschews complex maze of human frailty, sinful intentions and builds a very simple form of confrontation with multiple domestic killings, as strings. Renner on a couple Olsen in turn productive play is not a tricky scenario dialogues, at times driving the action to digestible pace. After all, "Windy river" in its constituent elements — in truth slow picture.
Summing up, I must say that "the River" would be where the spectacular and harder, if Sheridan had paid more attention to form, and not content. You see, it dry school report would become more like good essay diligent student. But even like is, "Windy river" leaves a positive impression after viewing.
