Robert Altman's dazzlingly original film about a gambler and a bordello madam doing business in a small mining town in the turn-of-the-century Pacific Northwest stands Old West mythology on its ear.

Derived from Robert Altman’s dreams—literally—this psychological drama stars Sissy Spacek as a naïve nurse in a small California desert town who becomes enamored with her pseudo-cosmopolitan coworker (Duvall). Spacek and Duvall deliver masterful performances as identities blur in this tale of obsession, schizophrenia, and psychoanalytic theory. This Bergman-esque enigma was unavailable for home viewing for nearly 30 years (Altman even stated that the negative had begun to deteriorate) until it was finally remastered and released in 2004.
