It is a performances centric movie

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Sucks. Love the scenery.
Movie is depressing, but lacks the other components to make it even into halfway decent movie otherwise. Don't recommend watching it.

The only good thing about this movie are the filming locations. Otherwise don't waste your time. Love the Ghost ranch Abiquiu filming location, drive through there a few times a year, on our way to Pagosa Springs. Stop a couple of miles north of there to let the dogs go potty! (road to the Christ in the desert Monastery). Someone actually called it a "deep, thought provoking, passionate film!" Wow.

It's technically very well done, the scenery is wonderful and it's a pretty good story. The acting is pretty good, too. So, why did I give it only five out of ten stars? There's just something about it, pacing maybe, that put me off. Or the ''look'' of it. It looks like it was shot with HD digital cams, and looks like the old TV Soaps used to look when they were shot on Video Tape, and everything looks a bit too 'real.'..Or something. Hard to describe.

Dead Man's Burden was an incredible film and the end was enjoyably unexpected. Throughout the film, you focus on understanding each character and their motives. The scenery is beautiful as it takes place in a western "slow moving" deserted town but don't let the characters fool you - they are more deep, twisted, and intelligent than you think! After the movie finished, it was very easy to sit there and think back to all the 'signs'. I really want to see the movie again so I can watch the progression of how the characters became who they were. There are not many movies out there that put the focus on acting, plot and scenery. It seems movies have animations and various scenes that are very distracting and then they spoon feed you the story line - Dead Man's Burden did not do that and I enjoyed every minute of it.
