Description

How did a small, idiosyncratic western family drama directed by someone who had not done a feature film in more than a decade become this year’s Oscar front-runner??  

Campion has now become the first woman to receive two nominations for Best Director – her previous one was more than 27 years ago for The Piano.  The story takes place in 1920s Montana and is mainly focused on two brothers who run a cattle ranch, the woman one of them falls in love with, and her troubled son….or is he?  

It stars Benedict Cumberbatch, Jesse Plemons, Kirsten Dunst, and Kodi Smit-McPhee… each of whom also received Oscar nominations for their exemplary work.
