2. Kelly Reichardt

Come along and take a slow ride on a rickety wagon through KELLY REICHARDT’s filmography from Florida to Oregon. From her debut, RIVER OF GRASS, to WENDY AND LUCY, her first of many with MICHELLE WILLIAMS, as well as MEEKS CUTOFF, and her latest (and greatest?), FIRST COW. Be one of the few, the proud, the I heart Reichardt.

00:00 - Intro - When the Reichardt bandwagon is rolling that slow, it’s easy to hop on!

05:45 - River of Grass (1994) - Sometimes when you run away from your problems, you just end up running into new ones.

16:21 - Wendy and Lucy (2008) - You don’t watch Kelly’s films, you read them. Strike ONE for Duncan being a pretentious prick.

24:26 - Meeks Cutoff (2010) - With a little bit of inspiration, and a whole lot of desperation, these characters are stuck in the middle of nowhere.

32:38 - Quick Takes - Night Moves & Certain Women

34:40 - First Cow (2020) - The greatest bakery themed heist thriller I’ve ever seen
