Review for Tenkiller

A great debut film about small town Oklahoma, poverty, heartache and boredom - and the hope and joy that can emerge from these more negative elements. The film drifts along on a skeletal plot about Leon (Ian Walker), an angry eighteen-year-old boy running afoul of his mom's unhinged boyfriend/machine part factory co-worker Dalton (James Allen Pershing), a conflict that unsurprisingly culminates in violence. But Tenkiller is more interested in the slices of life happening in-between its narrative, emphasizing simple small town happiness and hardship in equal measure. Beautifully shot with magnificent performances and a soundtrack from breakout band Chat Pile.
