When three women living on the edge of the American frontier are driven mad by harsh pioneer life, the task of saving them falls to the pious, independent-minded Mary Bee Cuddy. Transporting the women by covered wagon to Iowa, she soon realizes just how daunting the journey will be, and employs a low-life drifter, George Briggs, to join her. The unlikely pair and the three women head east, where a waiting minister and his wife have offered to take the women in. But the group first must traverse the harsh Nebraska Territories marked by stark beauty, psychological peril and constant threat.

Even a fantastic cast, capable director, beautiful cinematography and immersive sound design can't polish this turd of a script into a good movie. An utter failure.

I was truly transported by this film. Despite the long succession of depressing events it somehow managed to be uplifting.

The Homesman This film tackles social issues of women and mental illness in a confronting way, unlike any Western I've seen. Some amazing shots to be seen.

Three crazy women for five weeks is a lot more than I bargained for.

The Homesman is directed by Tommy Lee Jones, who also co-adapts the screenplay from Glendon Swarthout's novel with Kieran Fitzgerald and Wesley A. Oliver. It stars Jones, Hilary Swank, Grace Gummer, Miranda Otto and Sonja Richt More

A novel based film starred and directed by the 70 years old Tommy Lee Jones. An unusual realistic western drama with a fantastic cast. It sets around the time 1850 and the story of three mentally ill wives who were transported to a safe facility by a man and More
