This looks like it could be a very interesting movie, which takes place in 1892 according to IMDB. I am still looking forward to this movie. Hopefully it will actually show in my area, and it won't be an ordeal to go see.
Friends of mine were at Telluride, and they thought this movie was one of the best featured at the festival. (One also snuck a photo of the back of Bale's head. )
The trailer is a bit of an early "teaser"! I had to look up more on the story! I am (unfortunately) very ignorant when it come to U.S. History on this time period and subject. Just what I have been able to pick up here and there from this site. As someone who previously absolutely despised history in general, I sure am having my horizons expanded!
Early reviews have called it one of the most brutal westerns ever made - not quite a ,94'ac McCarthy but close. They've also discussed themes of masculinity and the violence.
