McCabe & Mrs. Miller

Robert Altman referred to McCabe & Mrs. Miller as his ‘anti-Western’. The film shows a grounded, unsentimental, and realistic portrayal of early 20th century Western life. 

During winter in a remote mining town, a gambler arrives to set up a tavern. The shrewd Mrs. Miller offers him her experience to help run his business and they join forces opening a brothel, but soon, a powerful company threatens to destroy what they have built.
