The Hi-Lo Country
1998, English. Directed by Stephen Frears.
A woman like Mona can drive men to extremes.
An intimate story of the enduring bond of friendship between two hard-living men, set against a sweeping backdrop: the American West, post-World War II, in its twilight. Pete and Big Boy are masters of the prairie, but ultimately face trickier terrain: the human heart.
