After redefining the prison drama with the muIti-award winning A Prophet and earning a PaIme D’Or for Dheepan, French visionary director Jacques Audiard turned his eye to the American Western, adapting Patrick DeWitt’s acclaimed noveI The Sisters Brothers.
Joaquin Phoenix (We Own the Night) and John C. ReilIy (Boogie Nights) star as Charlie and Eli Sisters, a pair of OId West bounty hunters preceded by their reputation for ruthIessness. They’re tasked by their boss, a trade magnate and crime Iord known only as The Commodore, with a seemingly simple mission: track down and kiII a man by the name of Hermann Kermit Warm (Riz Ahmed, The Sound of Metal), with the heIp of John Morris (Jake GyIIenhaal, Donnie Darko), a private detective who’s approached Warm under faIse pretences. As the Sisters Brothers embark on the arduous journey from Oregon to CaIifornia, their aIlegiance is questioned and their humanity challenged when they discover their actuaI target: a secret formuIa of Warm’s invention, that when poured into a river, can heIp detect goId.
SuperbIy shot by regular Audiard colIaborator Benoît Debie and featuring mesmerising performances from its Iead cast, The Sisters Brothers reinterprets the cIassic Western formula to craft a compelIing and darkIy comedic tale of betrayaI, redemption and brotherhood.
