Wind River is a chilling thriller that follows a rookie FBI agent (Elizabeth Olsen) who teams up with a local game tracker with deep community ties and a haunted past (Jeremy Renner) to investigate the murder of a local girl on a remote Native American Reservation in the hopes of solving her mysterious death.
Insider’s tip: “It’s one terrific, offbeat and heart-pounding thriller set in the frozen wilderness of a Wyoming Indian reservation that never ceases to surprise, enthrall and pump the adrenaline with an energy that stuns” (Rex Reed, New York Observer). Claudia Puig, TheWrap, adds: “With its chilly, atmospheric and convincing story, Wind River has the feel of a richly immersive novel. It’s not perfect…. But the mood is tense, the characters are well-drawn and director-screenwriter Taylor Sheridan has crafted some of the best dialogue of any movie this year.” Bill Goodykoontz, Arizona Republic: “As with all of the films he writes, Sheridan takes us to places that are foreign to many of us, yet immerses us so deeply into the sense of place that everything feels familiar, recognizable. It’s a trip worth taking, making Wind River another stop on the unique cinematic travelogue Sheridan is building.”
Wind River has 3 wins and another 4 nominations for excellence.
