Movie description
In transporting Thomas Hardy's THE MAYOR OF CASTERBRIDGE to the American West, English director Michael Winterbottom has fashioned an audacious, epic anti-Western that is a haunting achievement. Set in 1849, the story concerns Mr. Dillon (Peter Mullan), the ruler of Kingdom Come, a snow-covered mining town in Northern California. The story opens with the arrival of Dalglish (Wes Bentley), a handsome surveyor for the Pacific Coast Railroad, who is searching for the most sensible way to turn the dream of a transcontinental railroad into a reality. Also drifting into town are the seriously ill Elena (Nastassja Kinski) and her daughter, Hope (Sarah Polley), who have ambiguous ties to Dillon. Immediately, Hope and Dalglish become acquainted, but their potential romance is threatened by the presence of Lucia (Milla Jovavich), a Portuguese madam who lives with Dillon. As Dalglish reaches a decision regarding the railroad, Dillon must painfully confront mistakes he's made in the past, triggering a series of tragic occurrences. Winterbottom's lush, expansive film miraculously manages to retain the somber spirit of Hardy's classically English tale. Employing the techniques that made Robert Altman's MCCABE & MRS. MILLER such a breathtaking spectacle--including Alwin Kuchler's dazzling cinematography and Michael Nyman's mesmerizing score--Winterbottom proves once again that he is an accomplished filmmaker who isn't afraid to tackle any genre.

Editorial reviews
"...An endlessly wrenching and compelling story....Moviemaking of the first order..."
Premiere - pp.22-3 - Glenn Kenny 

"...[A] meaty, meaningful film...that bring[s] rare insights to the subject of money and the havoc it can wreak..."
Movieline - pp.30-33 - Stephen Farber 

"...It's refreshing to see an English director working within a traditionally American genre, and yet maintaining an outsider's perspective....THE CLAIM is Winterbottom's most accomplished film yet..." -- 4 out of 5 stars
Total Film - p.90 - Tom Dawson 

"...THE CLAIM is a film of extraordinary images....[Kinski] gives a performance of great warmth and intensity..."
Sight and Sound - p.44-5 - Edward Buscombe 

"...The cast is individually intelligent, refined and understated..."
Entertainment Weekly - p.86 - Lisa Schwarzbaum 

"...Affecting....The look of the film is terrific, and the actors, carefully cast, perform admirably; Michael Nyman's score soars and cascades..."
Los Angeles Times - p.F2 - Kevin Thomas 

"...Peter Mullan's performance is private and painful....Winterbottom is a director comfortable with ambiguity..."
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (04/22/2001)
