Viggo Mortensen's 'The Dead Don't Hurt' Movie Review: A Western From A Different Point of View

Viggo Mortensen stars, direct and writes Western film, The Dead Don't Hurt

Viggo Mortensen takes the romance out of the Wild West in his sophomoric directorial effort, THE DEAD DON’T HURT. Westerns typically feature men as heroes or outlaws, and women are relegated to prostitutes or wives. Mortensen presents a different point of view from an independent woman's perspective (Vicky Krieps) and also the immigrant experience.
