The new film from Jane Campion, “The Power of the Dog,” is based on Thomas Savage’sof the same name, published in 1967. The title echoes the Twenty-second Psalm, in the King James Bible: “Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog.” As the movie ends, you can’t help asking yourself: Who exactly is the dog, and who’s the darling?
This is especially true of the Burbank clan. Their bastion is a mansion, richly furnished, with dark wood panelling, like a gentlemen’s club. But look at the gentlemen. George Burbank is stout, compliant, and ill at ease; even on horseback, he wears a black suit. By contrast, his brother, Phil , cuts a lean and leathery figure and spurns the trappings of his affluence, preferring the great outdoors.
The pivot of the plot is Rose Gordon , a widow who runs a boarding house. She has a son, an otherworldly creature named Peter ; as thin as a sapling, and flitting to and fro in white shoes, he is the one who makes the flowers. When the ranchers stop at Rose’s place for a meal, Phil taunts Peter, to the amusement of the tough guys, and to Rose’s evident dismay. George, abashed by his brother’s bluntness, offers his apologies to Rose, and that’s not all.
One way to measure “The Power of the Dog” is to lay it beside Elia Kazan’s “East of Eden” —another saga of fraternal rivalry, laden with Biblical overtones. Both films are too inward-turning, and too sombrely shadowed, to count as epics, despite the grandeur of their landscapes.

Now I’m intrigued. I grew up there, and the culture of self-repression and manners over emotional honesty was real. “Claustrophobia in Big Sky Country” sums it up.

Hated it. Dreadful overacting. But then I kept yelling at the screen just move the Piano above the tide line in The Piano.
Probably the horses are the best actors, as usual! Landscape deserves the supporting Oscar!
'Despite the grandeur of its Montana setting' What?! The film was shot in the South Island of New Zealand.
Amazing cast but 😴
