Beautifully filmed and performed - the opening sequence using mirrors and doorframes to fuse the torsos of two characters to form a whole - is stunning, but in the end, the overall concept left me in the dark.

Certain Women is a film where a missed opportunity to connect, or a brief, surprising flash of empathy, feels crucial enough to pore over days after seeing it.

For the most part, these narratives lack the kind of tension between character and setting that have made Reichardt's quiet, modest, measured films so compelling.

"Certain Women" requires patience from the viewer and isn't for anyone, but it's a film of quiet and lingering beauty.

If the characters here are often sparing with their words, or even withholding, the visuals speak volumes.

Every masterfully-composed frame seethes with thoughts left unspoken but sentiments still made plain.
