Starring the wonderful Lily Gladstone (from <i>Certain Women<\/i>, where she first came on my radar &#8211; and I cannot WAIT to see Scorsese&#8217;s new film, where she also stars: a leap in status, which normally doesn&#8217;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 &#8211; not actors, except for Gladstone &#8211; and their voices. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rogerebert.com\/reviews\/the-unknown-country-movie-review-2023\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">I reviewed for Ebert<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>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&#8217;s death.
