Minervini built a set in Montana and then allowed the actors to live there for two months
Line of Events
In the winter of 1862, during the American Civil War, the US Army sent a volunteer company to patrol the unknown western territories. The dialogue and thoughts expressed are ones the actors came up with while living in the middle of nowhere, imagining they were soldiers in the Civil War.
Don’t worry about the subtitles
Nice beards. Nice scenes of Civil Way soldiers walking through the snow and loading the correct weapons…
You won’t need subtitlesnothing important is being said
there is no more than 10 minutes of dialogue in the entire 80 minutes of the movie. Watch the movie…the characters only say things like ”this is how to shoot that rifle or pistol”.
The only positive thing about this movie is that the action takes place somewhere in the mountains, the guys have nice beards and weapons that are somewhat appropriate for the era
If it was a porn movie, you’d just see an actor and an actress stare into each other’s eyes for 75 minutes, and then it would be exciting if one of the actors had to blow their nose.
