Stoic and heartbroken, Einar Gilkyson quietly lives in the rugged Wyoming ranchlands alongside his only trusted friend, Mitch Bradley. One day, the woman he blames for the death of his only son arrives at his door broke, desperate and with a granddaughter he's never known. But even as buried anger and accusations resurface, the way is opened for unexpected connection, adventure and forgiveness.

    **_“How painful are honest words!”_** Shot in the spring & early summer of 2003, this sat on the shelf for over two years before finally being released in September, 2005. The script was written by Mark Spragg & his wife Virginia, which was published as a book the year after shooting completed. The Spraggs married Redford’s “The Horse Whisperer” with “Of Mice and Men” (think Crooks living in the stable). There are also bits of Jennifer Lopez’ “Enough.” It’s not as good as “The Horse Whisperer” or “Of Mice and Men,” but it’s still worth checking out if you like those movies or “A River Runs Through it” and “Legends of the Fall.” Redford was 66 during shooting and still lean, as well as formidable. Morgan Freeman was likewise 66. A couple of fragments of eye-rolling LIEberal talking points show up in the dialogues, but they’re so fleeting they’re not worth mentioning. Looking past that, there are quality life lessons that never get old amidst occasional predictableness. It runs 1h 47m and was shot in in British Columbia in Ashcroft, Savona, and Kamloops, which are located a 4-hour drive northeast of Vancouver on the other side of the Coast Mountains. GRADE: B/B-
