By BRIAN WATKINS

Directed by DANYA TAYMOR

In the Tuttle family, the past is not to be discussed. But when their estranged and silent brother is spotted at a hometown diner twenty years after a confounding childhood crime, buried memories and unspoken bounties hatch one boozy, plotting Thanksgiving. In the depths of Wyoming's wilderness, the family herd must stick together or teeter towards the way of the buffalo.

"Thoughtfulness and fervent belief in catharsis...secrets come out bit by bit, and finally in a torrent."

Sarah Sokolovic is "excellent."

Layla Khoshnoudi is "a funny, pitch-perfect child."

Carter Hudson and Laura Ramadei's chemisty is "crackling."

"...Naturalistic exchanges deftly handle exposition and, as evidenced by the laughter of the packed house, are often also very funny."

"Original music from Robin Pecknold, of indie-folk powerhouse Fleet Foxes, and Neal Morgan that appropriately evokes a kind of windswept melancholy."

"The family reunion arranged here by Watkins and Taymor is one well worth attending."

"Equal parts hilarious and heartbreaking."

"Wyoming is a beautiful tour through a difficult mystery, wandering and as unexpected as the majesty of the landscape it all lives within."
