The Rider (2018) Sony Pictures Classics
The Rider is one of those quiet movies that snuck in and surprised me. It's the story of a rodeo star who has had a career ending injury. What do you do when rodeo is all you know? Chloe Zhou has made a quiet, work of art with this film, transporting you to the plains of South Dakota, the struggles of Brady Jandreau and his family, the hardships of the community around them, and the beauty in a place that seems desolate. The dialogue is sparse, but you don't need it in this movie to know what is going on. It is a truly beautiful film that is worth your time.
