Kelly Reichardt and A24's latest frontier drama centres on two friends who take a risk stealing from the wealthiest man in Oregon Territory to start a business and experience some hardship along the way.
It's a critical darling that we have some good and bad things to say about, its use of genre and film-making techniques, and its thematic exploration of capitalism, masculinity, and the frontier. And of course Armond White has his say, and by the end we reveal a new character to the show: Antiracist Baby.
