A young woman with a dark past finds wisdom and her identity in the romance of the old west.
I recommend Painted Woman not only for its excellent story but also for how it executes that story. The pacing allows room for the characters to breath--their intentions to play out when they're not speaking. Director James Cotten draws the audience into caring for everyone on screen without forcing us to. Painted Woman is not a cookie cutter that holds your hand the entire time. It's also beautifully shot; many moments are very elegant. Overall, "elegant" is a great word to describe it.
If you enjoy film for the art within, and for the beauty, go see Painted Woman.
