Description

In this radically reimagined American Western set towards the end of the Civil War, Southerner Augusta encounters two renegade, drunken soldiers who are on a mission of pillage and violence. After escaping an attempted assault, Augusta races back to the isolated farmhouse that she shares with her sister Louise and their female slave Mad. When the pair of soldiers track Augusta down intent on exacting revenge, the trio of women are forced to take up arms to fend off their assailants, finding ways to resourcefully defend their home––and themselves––as the escalating attacks become more unpredictable and relentless.

    _**Near the end of the Civil War three women fight for their lives**_ During the Carolinas Campaign near the bitter end of the Civil War in spring, 1865, two sisters & a former slave (Brit Marling, Hailee Steinfeld & Muna Otaru) have been waiting out the war at their rural homestead. A couple of Yankee cutthroats enter the picture and they have to use their wits to survive. A slowburn Western that takes place in the East, "The Keeping Room" (2014) has sparse settings, but a competent cast, profiscient filmmaking and a realistic, grim tone. Similar movies include "Pharaoh's Army" (1995) and “Echoes of War” (2015). “War Flowers” (2012) is another one but, unlike that flick, “The Keeping Room” features top-of-the-line filmmaking for a modest-budget picture. The film runs 1 hour, 35 minutes, and was shot in Poienari, Arges County, Romania. GRADE: B+
