Movies Watched -- First Cow (2020)

Added on by C. Maoxian.

120 minute running time so 20 to 30 minutes too long … this was a slow-moving story, not bad, just overly slow and long … nice to see a “Chinaman” in a tale from 19th C. America (though he was full of “wise thoughts”) … they also tried to give some Injuns screen time for once … W.D. By a woman so it was sweet and sensitive, maybe too much so. SPOILERS: I don’t think a girl who discovered a skull would proceed to dig out two skeletons by hand, that didn’t ring true. I also don’t think the guy who shot them would leave them where they were.

I might recommend this film if they had figured out how to cut 20 to 30 minutes out, but at its current length, I’d say give it a pass.

There’s danger in everything that’s worth doing.
