Wind River

Wind River - Official Trailer - 2017 Crime Movie HD
Voltage Pictures

Pretty good. Our guy is a hunter from the Fish & Wildlife Service whose job is to track down and kill predators that are killing livestock in the area*. The local sheriff calls in the hunter when he finds a young woman dead in the snow. The FBI gets called in because it happened on an Indian reservation, so now we've got a cute little girl FBI agent added to the mix.

The 'story' bandied about in the movie is that the woman died because she was running so hard and so far in the sub-zero weather that the moisture in the air froze inside her lungs and the ice crystals punctured the alveoli in her lungs. The alveoli started bleeding and she basically drowned in her own blood. It's a nice theory, and it's sounds nastier than just freezing to death. Rumor has it that the later is just like falling asleep. I don't know about that, but I do know I absolutely hate being cold. I don't mind cold weather, I used to go skiing up on Mt. Hood. If you're dressed for it, it's fine, but if you aren't it totally sucks. Anyway, I did a little checking to see if it was a real thing, and according to this guy and this guy, it isn't. Regardless, it made a good story.

The show was full of trucks, snowmobiles and guns, every Yankee redneck's dream world. None of them little, pukey toy cars that people use to drive to the coffee shop. Even our cute little FBI agent is driving a full size SUV. Her explanation for why she shows up in bumfuck Wyoming in the middle of winter with nothing but a light jacket (and a gun) is simultaneously totally unbelievable and totally believable at the same time. No right thinking person would do that on their own, but bureaucracies don't give a shit, go to bumfuck NOW and sort out whatever it is. You've got a charge card, use it.

There were a couple of gun fights: a small one early on with the cute little FBI agent where she proves she's got the chops to get the job done, and big one at the end that involves everybody and most everyone dies. The best part is we didn't have any of that mealy mouthed blather about not killing the bad guys. Fuck that shit, these guys are no damn good, shoot them dead and be done with it. My kind of movie. Too many Portland drivers are escaping justice. Thank god for movies where I can see them get their just desserts in living color.
