Netflix’s new Western series is a bleak and bloody affair.
pulls no punches in its six-episode limited run. Murder, rape and mayhem and suicide fill this relentlessly brutal world. The only thing more deadly than the frontier itself is the men who occupy it: Conniving Mormon settlers, ruthless Native American tribes, greedy bounty hunters. And a few good men and women, fighting to survive amidst all the malice and depravity.that I wasn’t the least bit surprised to discover it was written by the same person, Mark L. Smith.
In the second main storyline we are immersed in the violent, bloody conflict known as the Mormon War that took place in 1857-1858 in what is now Utah and Wyoming. In this conflict,alum Kim Coates plays LDS leader, Brigham Young, portrayed here as a ruthless, fanatical villain who will stop at nothing to establish a home for his people.
The Shoshone tribe has its share of violent warriors, but overall they’re portrayed as brave and honorable people who simply want to be left alone by all the white settlers, Mormon or otherwise. Captain Dellinger of the US Army is an honorable man who only seeks the truth, and whose writing is filled with hope for a better future. Isaac Reed, however lost he is to the world, is a courageous and compassionate man who risks everything to help perfect strangers. Same with Two Moons.
