The landscape of this film fortified the story. I had to look up the location; it was filmed in the small town of Kanosh, Utah. Using this locale reminded me of the backdrops and scenery used in Nomadland. Connecting the setting with the story worked so well in both films. Add to that stellar acting, strong performances by everyone and it’s worth watching.

The title is misleading – I’m not sure anyone was killed, unless it was the relationship? I’m reluctant to give the film that much credit since the dialog is often lacking and parts of the storyline were unclear to me. As I do so frequently with most films I watch – I have questions. (they’ll remain unanswered)

It’s a compelling film – once you start watching you must finish. It won’t let you leave.
