Plot summary

In this radically reimagined American Western set towards the end of the Civil War, Southerner Augusta encounters two renegade, drunken soldiers who are on a mission of pillage and violence. After escaping an attempted assault, Augusta races back to the isolated farmhouse that she shares with her sister Louise and their female slave Mad. When the pair of soldiers track Augusta down intent on exacting revenge, the trio of women are forced to take up arms to fend off their assailants, finding ways to resourcefully defend their home––and themselves––as the escalating attacks become more unpredictable and relentless.

War is cruelty

The Keeping Room follows three women who are left alone on a plantation in the south near the end of the American Civil War. While these women are just trying to survive, they are put to the test when two rouge union soldiers. The result is an eerie, heartbreaking, and thought-provoking film about a group of people that we don't think about in history, women of the south. The film also does a good job of showing the dark side of the Union Army. Near the end of the war the union army had the attitude, "War is cruelty. There is no use trying to reform it. The crueler it is, the sooner it will be over. - William Tecumseh Sherman, Union Army General. Thus the burning and looting of southern plantations. While at the same time, this film doesn't glorify the confederacy. Instead, this film is about a small group of characters caught in a bad situation. Also, this film has some amazing performances from Hailee Steinfeld and Sam Worthington. I've always thought Sam Worthington is an underrated actor, and he is amazing as this film's villain. Hailee Steinfeld's performance simply fantasist. Even though she is only a kid, she is by far the best actor in this film, which goes to show just how talented she is. I wasn't as impressed with Brit Marling, but this could be because I found her character underwhelming. This movie isn't for everyone as there are some dark scenes. However, if you have the stomach for it, I'd recommend seeking it out.

Slow but sure

A thinly plotted , mainly slow but often tense Civil War piece with three fine lead performances and a good rather different one from Sam Worthington. An interesting take on what happens when law breaks down in a soon to be defeated land.
