An extraordinary and visionary study of a legendary murderer’s famous fate, within touching distance of Oscars.

...a dark, iconoclastic Western that lacks clear heroes and villains...

Esta película es realmente HERMOSA, desde la fotografía y planos, hasta las emociones tan crudas y profundas que reflejan las actuaciones. Con solo miradas podían crear tensión y suspenso.

Et spændende værk, som kræver at man ved, hvad man går ind til – men som så også belønner tilskueren med en mindeværdig anderledes oplevelse.

...till bredden fylld med pinsamt talangfulla skådisar, makalöst foto, ren fysisk spänning och med ett magiskt skildrat nattligt tågrån som fick håren på mina armar att resa sig av njutning.
