A singular revisionist Western, Meek’s Cutoff shows us the trials and confusions of a trek by covered wagon down the Oregon Trail as seen mainly through the perspective of the women on this arduous journey. Remaining one of the highpoints of contemporary independent film making, this meticulously researched film based on a true story offers what is likely the most realistic cinematic portrait of frontier life and wagon travel. With Michelle Williams, Bruce Greenwood, Zoe Kazan, Paul Dano, Will Patton, and Shirley Henderson. (104 mins., 35mm)
