THE SISTERS BROTHERS

Jacques Audiard United States, 2018
If not strictly revisionist, it is in Warm’s musings of a utopian community that the film hits its most fertile terrain, tapping into the suggestive and seldom-discussed trope of the Wild West as a place where an egalitarian society could thrive out of anarchy.

Neither a nostalgic throwback to traditional westerns nor a revisionist antiwestern, this advances a positive view of camaraderie between individualist western types while subtly critiquing the unfettered capitalist system in which they operate. As in most of Audiard’s films, however, the observations seem conceptual rather than genuinely felt.

Screenwriter Thomas Bidegain and the director, Jacques Audiard (A Prophet, Dheepan), have brilliantly adapted Patrick deWitt’s 2011 novel. They turn what could have been an arch picaresque narrative into a mock epic that grows more affecting and intense as it goes along.

Despite Mr. Audiard’s embrace of contemporary norms that would have been out of place in a Wayne western — the amusingly deployed coarse language, the shots to the head and sprays of blood — he isn’t attempting to rewrite genre in “The Sisters Brothers,” which is one of this movie’s virtues, along with its terrific actors and his sensitive direction of them.

At its strongest, under the assured, if not especially, daring vision of French director Jacques Audiard, the film is rich with male feelings and even manages to have a sense of humor about its own sadness.

An easy watch, if not particularly challenging. But upon closer inspection, the deceptively familiar narrative landscape reveals itself as a rugged terrain layered with additional, unexpected meanings.

Audiard brings us, of all things, a loose-limbed, mournfully comic western that gets better the further off-trail it goes.

It’s beautifully shot, and while certain aspects of its storyline are a little too shaggy-dog for my tastes, it’s a compulsively watchable picture with as sweet a “no place like home” coda as you’ve ever imagined.
