In a Valley of Violence (Western von Ti West)

StS

A mysterious drifter named Paul (Ethan Hawke) and his dog make their way towards Mexico through the barren desert of the old west. In an attempt to shorten their journey, they cut through the center of a large valley — landing themselves in the forgotten town of Denton, a place now dubbed by locals as a “valley of violence.” The once-popular mining town is nearly abandoned and controlled by a brash group of misfits — chief among them Gilly (James Ransone), the troublemaking son of the town’s Marshal (John Travolta).

As tensions rise between Paul and Gilly, Denton’s remaining residents bear witness to an inevitable act of violence that starts a disastrous chain reaction, infecting the petty lives of all involved and quickly drags the whole town into the bloody crosshairs of revenge. Mary-Anne (Taissa Farmiga) and Ellen (Karen Gillan), two bickering sisters who run the town’s only hotel, try to find the good in both men, while desperately searching for their own salvation. Only the world-weary Marshal struggles to stop the violent hysteria, but after a gruesome discovery about Paul’s past… there is no stopping the escalation.

Hört sich gut an und ich freue mich über die "Wiedergeburt" des Westerngenres.

Fun Fact für mich in diesem Fall Ethan Hawke, ich laß mir einen Bart stehen und spiel in "Magnificent Seven" mit um dann auch noch für Ti West anzutreten. Ich find`s lustig weil des Russels Kurt ja auch letztens erst für "The Hateful Eight" und "Bone Tomahawk" gemacht hat. 😁

Bei Ethan ist es nicht ganz so "eins-zu-eins" wie bei Kurt aber lustig ist es allemal.
