When three Nebraska women are driven mad by harsh pioneer life, the moral and ever-capable Mary Bee Cuddy (Hilary Swank) agrees to transport them east to safety. A whiskey-soaked drifter (Tommy Lee Jones) is hired as (reluctant) protection but these two archetypes evolve into complex, vulnerable and unpredictable human beings. Both a captivating western and a meticulous, devastating feminist critique of the genre, Homesman marks Swank’s welcome return to the big screen. D: Tommy Lee Jones, US, 2014, 120m
