First Cow (2020), directed by Kelly Reichardt, is a quiet yet profound meditation on friendship, survival, and capitalism in 19th-century Oregon. The story follows a skilled cook and a Chinese immigrant who form an unlikely bond and hatch a risky plan involving the territory’s first cow. Through sparse dialogue and beautiful cinematography, the film explores themes of human connection and the cost of the American dream.
