Story:
In this 19th-century drama, an American family from the Northeast heads to Wyoming in search of a better life, only to face tragedy and hardship. Maggie Sergent (Joanna Pettet), the hard-driving matriarch of the clan, is totally unprepared when her husband, John (William Shatner), is murdered. Left to handle the farm on her own, Maggie must choose whether to stay in Wyoming and run the farm with her children, or head back to the East Coast and the life she knows.
Review:
a good insight into the tough life of how the west was won
I enjoyed this movie more than I thought I would.
It presents well the vulnerability of the individual in settling the pioneering lands of vastness. Especially for a woman who has children to care for where survival is rough & tough & against the odds! I thought these insights were effectively described in the diaries of the woman attempting to farm the harsh lands amidst con-men, the well-meaning and hillsides of buffalo. But every time, it’s a case of a struggle to make more steps forward, against the obstacles forcing the determined back, through natural and man-made catastrophes.
Along the way, the vastness of the raw scenery is impressive in creating a sense of the difficulties of this "pioneer woman" and those around her. Well worth a look! Written by spj-4 on imdb.com
