‘On Swift Horses' is a mixed bag of eros and agita in 1950s California
It's always an interesting sight when successful television directors get a shot at making a feature film. They can get certain pieces right — performances, atmosphere, subtext — while often fumbling the shape and pace of the thing and sometimes its very reason, its why. So it is with 'On Swift Horses,' an adaptation of Shannon Pufahl's 2019 novel from Daniel Minahan, whose résumé in series TV includes episodes of 'Deadwood,' 'Game of Thrones,' 'Grey's Anatomy,' 'True Blood' and many others. A steamy slow boil of a drama about queerness, sexual and otherwise, beneath the stifling surface of 1950s America, the movie generates a fair amount of heat while hanging some talented actors out to dry.
