The TVI Take

Kelly Reichardt's 2010 Oregon Trail Western anchored by Michelle Williams as a settler-wife traveling with her husband and other families across the 1845 high desert under a guide (Bruce Greenwood as Stephen Meek) whose competence is increasingly doubted. The structural commitment to the 1.33:1 academy-aspect-ratio cinematography (mimicking the bonneted-women's actual visual field) is the catalog's most-formally-distinctive choice.
