Review derails. Horizon: An American Saga – Chapter 1 – 11 minutes.

Kevin Costner made a true film about America, which is mesmerizing Dances with Wolves. He was involved in The Highwaymen with a noble goal – showing of actual portrait of Texas rangers who chased Bonnie and Clyde, because they were smeared in infamous sixties picture, but I couldn’t come to watching by it was solid in purity Hollywood as a scene with a main hero wants to do catching alone while other pathos sitting ranger asks to join and shows a teeth brush what becomes a factor to change decision. I was intrigued by his self-financing of project Horizon: An American Saga, a western encompassing fifteen years with intention to realize four films. I would wish to see on big silver screen, because artist’s self-expression is not often today. I didn’t because Warner Bros. wasn’t distributor. That thought was ultimately shot dead by Costner himself when I watched with whom video of his praising on Golden Globe of a movie in which filmmakers used girl toy trademark for putting their extreme feminist agenda. I did not think back then that Warner Bros., who distributed in theaters aforementioned radicalism, asked him to express such due to box-office was made and it didn’t need in additional promotion. Costner says to actress who played in that lunacy obscurantism on liking her speech, which, curious, he doesn’t remember a word of it what makes, as his behavior there, suspicious that a performer doesn’t like this movie actually. I lost in confidence of goodness of Horizon by watching trailer in which logic of acts was in asking. Nevertheless, I was intending to watch it… or die trying.

 

More revealed information realized that truth is beyond of abhorrent. I was watching a picture and thought that do toxic “women power” was part of deal with a devil, which name is Warner Bros. with which Kevin Costner did soul selling in discussing of distribution condition and receiving additional dozen millions to his thirty-eight million dollars in budget. Or an honor at least. A director did much talking in interviews on meaningfulness of women in Wild West. He arrived in Cannes only with female part of cast.

 

A filmmaker wanted to make a pretty shot, which was a man climbing by horse on ruins of church under beautiful guitar. Music is that what was lovable in these eleven minutes. That person takes out and looks on paper, which, suddenly, was grabbed from him – a senseless for plot and hackneyed trick for stir up audience. Between two men occurs an unnatural talking made in attempt to do a Wild West style, yeeha. There we also already have an actor who overacts his priest or whatever with this rider. Costner devoted to give an imposing shot of that hero after he finds a corpse. However, we know that Indians didn’t kill surveyor and a boy with him. I’m sure in that selling of soul was with inclusion of directing talent.

Then I looked on a woman who enters in a house, says a name of a male for pathos and shoots him in somewhere shoulder two times. She didn’t try to relocate muzzle down at second firing. This female doesn’t intend to finish him by having an advantage and abandons a premise what deprives her act a purpose. That lady escapes by taking horse with carriage. A wounded man tries to slay her with a revolver, but she doesn’t react on his action and rides away.

Costner can’t stage. Dames stay in a row at wood house entrance with no emotions on winter street and look on coming male group who carries another man. An old one female asks with seems becoming symbolic the pathos on what happened, the men stop and one responds that she will ask personally if he will survive. Seconds later, that woman demonstrates her “women power” by having confrontation with one of these people who are bandits. She kicks him and wants to do again, but her hand was grabbed.

 

I’ve got overburdened of “women power” in clean watching. There was getting more of it even an accidental clicking. I had it at first pressure of line, which was watching how Sienna Miller, who is beautiful even though I don’t prefer blondes, in going to kill some attacker who participated in burning house what forced her to hide. I love a true strong woman, which Costner showed in Open Range, while Horizon is execution of far-feminist agenda.

The director did other, which is a big deplorable thing. He demonstrated Black people in good clothes and equality with white in the year 1859. He revived a Confederate disinformation.

 

Yes, it has beautiful landscapes, but I prefer to look on them with a dog in reality.
