I loved this film about a Lakota woman, estranged from her family and the reservation, driving from the Badlands down to Texas in the wake of her grandmother’s death. Starring the wonderful Lily Gladstone (from Certain Women, where she first came on my radar – and I cannot WAIT to see Scorsese’s new film, where she also stars: a leap in status, which normally doesn’t matter but for her? An indigenous actress? Unprecedented. And I have high hopes.) Anyway: this is a beautiful lyrical film, filled with real people – not actors, except for Gladstone – and their voices. I reviewed for Ebert.
