		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Sweetgrass&#8221; is a hard film to recommend. Not because I don&#8217;t want to recommend it, but because of what it is. It&#8217;s the kind of film where you can sometimes hear the projector behind you like a shuffling deck of cards — the kind of film you might have to watch in a class someday, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If veteran documentarian Frederick Wiseman ever made a Western, I’m sure it would resemble “Sweetgrass.” In many respects, the film hews to the rules established by ’60s cinema verité. In fact, it goes further than many films from that period by throwing the spectator into an alien world without explaining any context. Lucien Castaing-Taylor eschews [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Since the late 19th century, sheep ranchers in Montana have driven their herds into the Absaroka-Beartooth mountain range to graze on the summer grass. Sweetgrass (Cinema Guild), a gorgeous and contemplative documentary by Ilisa Barbash and Lucien Castaing-Taylor, accompanies the last-ever sheep drives into the Beartooth range. The film, culled down from 200 hours of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Part elegy and part update, Ilisa Barbash and Lucien Castaing-Taylor’s documentary follows ranchers and their sea of sheep on a historic final run to summer pastures.  Shot in long shots, the spirit-freeing vistas of Montana’s Beartooth Mountains reverberate with the echoes of decades of Westerns (and cigarette ads) even as the use of close [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Shepherding Artistic Objectivity
Whether unashamedly biased or covertly slanted, American documentaries are generally so politically charged that we’ve become accustomed to asking, “How much of it was true?”
This is an unfortunate fate for an art form. Why? Because polemics eventually turn audiences into skeptics, skeptics into cynics, and cynics into people who don’t like art. It’s [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The list of things you won&#8217;t get from &#8220;Sweetgrass&#8221; is almost as impressive as the film itself. No narration, though this is a documentary. No music, unless you count a few snatches of song (&#8221;Headin&#8217; home, baby, headin&#8217; home now&#8221;), most of them mumbled by an aging fellow on horseback. No way of hearing half [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The tagline for the wonderful documentary “Sweetgrass,” the first essential movie of this young year, is “the last ride of the American cowboy.” I suppose the word shepherd, with its pastoral evocations of maidens in pantaloons and lads with flutes, doesn’t have the necessary grit or mythic punch. But the quiet and cantankerous men in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We tend to mythologize certain ultra-masculine occupations as imbued with some essential American ethos: long-haul trucker, big-city police detective, oil-rig wildcatter. But none of those is as redolent of the lost, last frontier as sheepherding in the Mountain West, a job that isn&#8217;t much different today than it was 100 years ago. At least, until [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A FILM OF SUBTLE SHIFTS and slowly dawning disclosures, Sweetgrass documents with dispassionate rigor the two-hundred-mile journey undertaken by a group of sheepherders across Montana’s Absaroka-Beartooth mountains. Eschewing narration, interviews, or any explicit intrusions of directorial viewpoint, filmmakers Ilisa Barbash and Lucien Castaing-Taylor fix their toiling subjects in exactingly framed, frequently static compositions set off [...]]]></description>
