Certain Women
Kristen Stewart, Lily Gladstone and Jared Harris star in Kelly Reichardt's acclaimed portmanteau of women's stories; winner of Best Film at BFI London Film Festival 2016.
Director: Kelly Reichardt
Overview
Award-winning director, Kelly Reichardt, reunites with regular collaborator Michelle Williams (Wendy & Lucy, Meek’s Cutoff) for a quietly powerful story about the lives of four women living in a small, sleepy town in Montana. Laura Dern plays a lawyer who is is having an affair with a married man while working defending a disgruntled construction worker (Jared Harris). Gina (Williams) is a woman of frustrated ambitions attempting to build the perfect family with her husband and surly child but struggling with her own moral compass. And lonely ranch hand Jamie (Lily Gladstone) enrols in a night school course and develops confusing feelings for supply teacher Beth (Kristen Stewart).
With stellar work from the flawless cast, and drawing from Montana-native Maile Meloy’s short stories, Reichardt’s delicate, nuanced direction ensures that the minutest look or gesture holds significance. And the only moment in the film to employ scored music is so overwhelming it might just break your heart.
