First Cow - Arvostelut

There’s something rare and wonderful in the low-key depiction of the relationship between Cookie and King-Lu...

It is a tremendously engaging story...

...a lovely, unhurried fable of male friendship.

... a beautifully rendered view of a touching camaraderie forged during the hardscrabble of frontier life.

...the film is entirely unique: a shaggy cow saga one minute; a treatise on class, ethnicity and the mechanisms of capitalism the next...

Reichardt's tender story of 19th century friendship consolidates the themes of her previous movies to hypnotic effect.

Terrible title. Terrific movie.

...beautiful and satisfying, perhaps because of the way it constantly strives forward.

...pings the senses with its authentic evocation of Gold Rush-era Oregon Territory – sticky with mud, rank with unwashed, bearded men.

...this strange US settler drama is the crème de la crème.

It is somehow both brutal and pastoral, peaceful and laced through with the inevitability of disaster and death.

...en fin historia om vänskap mellan två ömhudingar i en värld av råskinn.

...ett stillsamt men överväldigande litet mästerverk, en upplevelse som framkallar intensiva lyckokänslor.

Kor, kakor och vänskap i modern västern.

Med lätt hand och utan våld skildrar Kelly Reichardt den amerikanska drömmen anno 1820.
