Slow West

Wanted Dead or Dead

Michael Fassbender “does his best Clint Eastwood” in SLOW WEST, an unusual western from newcomer John Maclean. Winner of the coveted World Cinematic Jury Prize at this year’s Sundance Film Festival, the film “…veers between the iconic and the bizarre… an absurdist, episodic road movie that itwes more to surreal art films like Jim Jarmusch’s DEAD MAN than it does to surrogate father Westerns like DEATH RIDES A HORSE or THE SEARCHERS.” (Vulture)

SLOW WEST (John Maclean, 2015) | At the end of the nineteenth century, 16-year-old Jay Cavendish (Kodi Smit-McPhee) journeys across the American frontier in search of the woman he loves. He is joined by Silas (Michael Fassbender), a mysterious traveler, and hotly pursued by an outlaw along the way.

“Bold, beautiful and original…[John Maclean] is a major new director.” The Guardian

“Brilliantly executed! Best defined by its sharp wit, absurdist violence and fairy tale qualities.”
