Recasting the Western with a feminist slant (as written and directed by men) this was an engrossing movie. Great acting, compelling characters and the movie balanced funny with tragic. However, there was a thing that happened in Act 3 that I didn’t at all find believable,* and which sunk the whole film.
Cost: free due to gift card
Where watched: Regal Fox Tower with S. North.
*If you’ve seen it, let me know, we’ll talk.

(I went with version three because it had Hilary Swank in front.)
