Director: John Hillcoat
Year: 2005
Writer: Nick Cave
Cinematographer: Benoit Delhomme
Nick Cave's screenplay for an Australian western is surprisingly good, and his soundtrack is a totally unexpected expressionistic force. The story, the acting, the directing, the cinematography and the soundtrack work together powerfully to tell a unique western which, while hitting upon some usual tropes, finds interesting twists in the genre.
A must see film, especially for western fans.
