Monday Film: First Cow

During the goldrush of the 1820’s, two outsiders strike up a friendship and a business plan: Using stolen milk from the only cow in the Oregon Territory, they start producing cakes that match the finest treats of the civilized world. With the cakes a runaway success, their only problem is keeping the nightly milk heists a secret. With the uniquely charming and universally critically acclaimed FIRST COW, Kelly Reichardt (MEEK’S CUTOFF, CERTAIN WOMEN) returns with another warm and nuanced tale of life in the Pacific Northwest.
