Wind River is not Taylor Sheridan’s best script and that says something. This movie is unbelievable on so many levels but it’s probably Sheridan’s thirst best script behind Hell or High Water and Sicario. All three films demonstrate Sheridan’s ability to move plot forward with both action & meaningful... dialogue. It’s why he’s one of the best screenwriters in the game.show more

Agreed. But after Yellowstone, his writing has dropped in quality. I believe he needs to take more time on them before finalizing the draft.

From what we know, Sicario isn’t really “his” script as denis cut most of the dialogue. Sheridan had del toro’s character talk WAY more including a voiceover with him over the intro. I actually do like this script more than HOHW but both are great

I knew he wasn’t for me when I saw through his stories like the paint by numbers they are. Wind River was such a trash heap I could hardly believe how many friends of mine, who respect my opinions on film, actually recommended it to me. The coroner’s foreshadowing was amateur.

This scene is so tense. Really amazing movie.

Hell or High Water is a masterpiece. Both as a script and a movie.

What actually amazed me about Taylor Sheridan is the ability to adapt and tune his script according to the demographic he wants. If you compare sicario or Hell or High water to Yellowstone or Landman you come to understand he's not an average writer. He's a genius!

This scene can go up against any other Sheridan movies and stand on its own. Just incredible. “You didn’t see it…”

I’d agree. 1) sicario 2) hell or high water 3) wind river. Wind river is good to me once you actually sit down and really focus and watch it to pick up the nuances.

Then why are his tv shows such lazy cliched crap

It's unbelievable how much of this movie was ripped off by the fourth season of True Detective

That movie fucking sucks

this movie kinda sucked

He should go back to movies. He made his pile in tv, now go do some great films

Hell or High Water had the most amazing cast to bring the screenplay to life.

The Bill Simmons interview that just dropped is an excellent look into his approach. Great listen.

Hell or High Water was by far the best!

certainly has Sheridan's best/most impactful monologues

I love this film !!!!

I also love Taylor's sparse but impactful use of music. That haunting bass in Sicario and the theme song of Yellowstone and all of his other shows are epic.

That standoff scene is wild.

Unbelievable? You haven’t visited the places he writes about

That scene is in the heat bank robbery neighborhood..

Sub par movie.

This film for me is better than the two others

Good movie 🍿

And as a Wyoming guy it holds up in terms of some of the little nuances that often are wrong in rural movies. Pinedale does take a terrible beating in it though for some reason

It was a good story for sure

This movie is stunning. Agree on 3rd place. But this one is brilliant, especially in raising and releasing tension.

He is my go-to I have to admit...

I don't know how he does it nine hit shows all running at the same time, with more planned! how does he find the time to write

Also all of them depressing as all get out, sign of the times…

Definitely worth the watch.

The take-the-pain scene is so great. The writing is next level.

This is a great film and deserved much more attention.

I really enjoyed this film! I’ve watched it several times. Very good story, very good acting.
