Aint Them Bodies Saints is an American 2013 romantic crime drama movie directed by David Lowery presented on Blu-ray.

Bob Muldoon (Casey Affleck) and Ruth Guthrie (Rooney Mara), an impassioned young outlaw couple on an extended crime spree, are finally apprehended by lawmen after a shootout in the Texas hills. Although Ruth wounds a local officer, Bob takes the blame.

Four years later, Bob escapes from prison and sets out across the countryside to find Ruth and the daughter he’s never met – unaware that Ruth has set her past behind her and struck up a relationship with a lawman who is tied to their violent past. Set against the backdrop of 1970’s Texas Hill Country, director David Lowery paints a poetic picture, evoking the mythology of westerns and saturating the dramatic space with an aching sense of loss.

Aint Them Bodies Saint movie reviews:

“A slow, banjo-string-tight thriller … Bodies gets under your skin and stays there.” Time Out

“It is not a large film. But Lowery may well be a large talent, and he sure knows how to cast the right actors.” Chicago Tribune

“David Lowery's richly woven, beautifully photographed Ain't Them Bodies Saints wears its dramatic sincerity on its sleeve.” Movie Mezzanine

“There are real virtues to this movie; it's remarkably well crafted and beautifully shot (by Bradford Young). If it drifts a little too much toward romanticizing its tender outlaws, it's just following in the footsteps of the masters.” Arkansas Democrat-Gazette

“The astute use of folk and bluegrass defines the palette of this film as much as the acting or the cinematography.” Observer
