The Ross brothers' third film, like their previous two (45365 and TCHOUPITOULAS), is a patient and poetic study of a place that plays like an immersive, if understated, work of literature. Taking place on the US-Mexico border, in a town called Eagle Pass, Texas, WESTERN conjures the symbols of the old shootout genre, yet remains tethered to the vivid now. At once a tuneful song, a subtly entrancing narrative and a smart observational portrait, WESTERN confirms the Rosses as being among the most important filmmaking teams in America.
