'Surrounded' Review: Outlaw Impresses in New Western
- Letitia Wright plays a woman pretending to be a man in the Western film "Surrounded" directed by Anthony Mandler.
- Jamie Bell plays a notorious bank robber who leads a gang that attacks a stagecoach carrying Wright's character.
- Wright gives a haunting performance as an ex-slave seeking freedom out West, though the film's writing and other performances are lacking.
- The story follows Wright's and Bell's characters as they are left alone together and gradually open up about their troubled pasts.
- Rated R for language and violence, "Surrounded" is available to rent or buy on most streaming platforms.
