I write about TV shows like House Of The Dragon, The Witcher, The Rings Of Power, Stranger Things, Yellowjackets, Severance and many others. I also cover movies, video games, comic books and novels, largely in the fantasy, science-fiction, horror and superhero genres.
I think we might be in the early days of a revival of the Western film genre. Then again, every time I think this I’m left empty-handed.seemed like the perfect vehicle for a Western revival, but it didn’t lead to one despite its popularity.which has been one of the best Western series I’ve seen in a very long time. Kevin Costner has left Sheridan’s other semi-Western show,The Dead Don’t Hurt,
which he also directed and stars in across from Vicky Krieps. Krieps plays Vivienne Le Coudy, a woman who meets Mortensen’s character—Danish immigrant Holger Olsen—in San Francisco and then journeys with him to his homestead in Elk Flats, Nevada. Things take a turn for the worse when Olsen enlists with the Union army to help preserve the union and fight against slavery. Vivienne is left alone among bad men, including Elk Flats mayor Rudolph Schiller and rancher Alfred Jeffries, played by Danny Huston and Garret Dillahunt, two men well-known for their roles in Westerns and as villains. Dillahunt was cast as two different characters infilms.
Mortensen is such a talented actor that I have really high hopes for this one. I have high hopes for this Western genre revival, too, though I know how badly hope can poison the mind’s well.
