CERTAIN WOMEN

This look at three women striving to forge their own paths amidst the wide-open plains of the American Northwest follows a lawyer (Laura Dern) who finds herself contending with both office sexism and a hostage situation; a wife and mother (Michelle Williams) whose determination to build her dream home puts her at odds with the men in her life; and a young law student (Kristen Stewart) who forms an ambiguous bond with a lonely ranch hand (Lily Gladstone). As their stories intersect in subtle but powerful ways, a portrait emerges of flawed, but strong-willed individuals in the process of defining themselves.
Native Floridian Kelly Reichardt established herself as a brilliant filmmaker with her first feature River of Grass . Nominated for 3 Independent Spirit Awards and winning the Grand Jury Prize at that years Sundance Festival. Since then with 9 more unique features Ms. Reichardt has matured into a true Master of story, characters and tempo reminding me of the minimalism and detail of Robert Bresson. Kelly Reichardt is why we seek out indie movies; for original sensibilities couched behind cinematic eyes. She will never be a franchise director.
