Open
Range (2003) DVD
In the wake of territorial murder,
free-grazing cowboys Boss (Robert Duvall) and Charley (Costner) seek vengeful
justice against the ruthless rancher (Michael Gambon) who threatens their
law-abiding survival. A feisty ally (the late Michael Jeter, in his next-to-final
film role) and a doctor's sister (Annette Bening) offer support during
climactic shootouts, masterfully staged with the shock and suddenness of
real-life gunfire. Rich in character development and thick-hided humor,
this handsome production redeemed Costner's directorial career with a well-told
story (by Craig Storper, based on Lauran Paine's novel The Open Range Men),
flawless performances, and stunning Canadian locations. --Jeff Shannon |
