How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A taut desert western where a marshal's commitment to the law is tested by a vengeful rancher who won't accept that justice served in a courtroom might not be the justice he wants. The harsh landscape becomes as much an adversary as the gunfire.
