A modern rendition of a sadly true story

Rating: 9/10 (7 November 2019)

With names Like Elizabeth Olsen and Jeremy Renner you expect something sharp, girtty and intense! No disappointments here then, with superb strong performances from both actors.
Renner plays a wildlife officer, Cory Lambert who discovers the body of a young Native American girl on a reservation. The autopsy reveals that she was raped and the FBI send investigator, Jane Banner, who has a no nonsense approach to the sad discovery.
She teams up with Lambert who has in depth extensive local knowledge of his home and surroundings. The pair then pursue the trail of evidence, leading them closer and closer to them both becoming targets of the perpetrators.
This is a true edge of the seat thriller based on regular crimes that happen in the Wind River area and are never investigated. This wild ride will have your heart in your mouth as things develop into a spine tingling and chilling climax. It sympathetically tells the story that many of us, myself included, never would have known actually happen in real life.
It will make you sit up, and take notice - something that the subject the movie covers, so well. Outstanding performances from Renner and Olsen who should BOTH have received Oscars for their roles.
