Daniel Minahan’s midcentury drama “On Swift Horses” is not so much a movie as a mood piece — an assemblage of beautifully shot scenes in which lovely people attractively smoke, lie moodily in bed and act on erotic impulses that may or may not work out in their favor. At its center is a triangle, though not the usual type: Muriel (Daisy Edgar-Jones), her husband Lee (Will Poulter) and Lee’s brother Julius (Jacob Elordi). As the three attempt to begin a new life after the men return from the Korean War, with Muriel and Lee moving to California and Julius finding his way to a shady life in Las Vegas, the triangle becomes something of a pentagon, with Muriel finding herself attracted to her neighbor Sandra (Sasha Calle) and Julius entering a dangerous relationship with a fellow card cheat, Henry (Diego Calva). – Seattle Times

“On Swift Horses is the kind of big, sweeping romantic drama that Hollywood just doesn’t make anymore.” The Hollywood Reporter
