Ain't Them Bodies Saints

This arthouse modern-day Western is centred on the journey of a notorious outlaw who breaks out of prison to reunite with his beloved wife and the daughter he's never met. He had taken the rap for his wife's shooting of a police officer. When he learns that his wife has given birth to their daughter, he makes a daring escape, and flees to be with them at any cost. This sets up the scene for a complex romantic triangle.

Rottentomatoes tomatometer Tomatometer While conventional in plot, Ain't Them Bodies Saints is a visually poetic film that pays homage to the New Hollywood directors of the 1970s and promises big things from director David Lowery.	16
