Cookie, a talented cook who works for a group of fur trappers meets King-Lu, a Chinese immigrant, and together they carry out a daring and dangerous business.
First Cow is one of those movies that divide audiences, with no room for middle ground: those who don't like it want it to end as soon as possible, if they don't give up halfway through, and those who like it don't mind if it lasts for another 2 hours. I'm for the second btw.
It's not perfect, it's not made of a set of layers that throughout the narrative expose complex motifs that shake the story, but it's more than capable to transmite tranquility, emotion and above all a sense of resilience and unity.
First Cow's best moment is the last arc, no doubt for me. The final scenes hits us well, really really well.
I'm a sucker for this aspect ratio (1.66:1), with great compositions and color scheme, like a painting in motion.
