While some have argued Woman Walks Ahead is a white savior movie, the sorrowful awareness of the film is that it knows all too well about its privilege, and the pain such good intentions can still inflict from 1890 to 2018.

Despite screenwriter Steven Knight's pedigree of grippingly good thrillers, this historical western becomes a very long walk too quickly for its own good.
