Americana

Sydney Sweeney and Paul Walter Hauser are just two of the slightly strange people in this film full of unique types. The plot revolves around a valuable Lakota Ghost shirt and several groups who are trying to exploit its value. The story is told in chapters that intertwine the characters and ultimately result in a bloody showdown. Sweeney adds a stutter to her sweet, shy waitress and Hauser plays the softhearted bumbler he does so well. Toss in Halsey as the runaway mom, Gavin Maddox Bergman as her son who thinks he’s Sitting Bull reincarnated, Zahn McClarnon as the real Native American and Simon Rex as the head crook. They all add interesting angles. Director Tony Tost (best known for “Poker Face”) has blended violence, romance and humor to make this new-noir crime drama that’s sometimes surprising and always entertaining. 3.5 out of 5 stars (3.5 / 5)
