Let Him Go – The Old Man’s Battle Against New Generation Violence

Set in 1960s Montana, Let Him Go unfolds as a melancholy symphony of love, loss, and cold violence. George Blackledge (Kevin Costner), a taciturn former sheriff, and his wife Margaret (Diane Lane), set out to find their grandchild who was “kidnapped into marriage” by the brutal Weboy family. But what awaits them in North Dakota is not reason or compromise – but violence, blood, and Blanche Weboy (Lesley Manville) – the embodiment of cold cruelty with a mother’s face.

A film for the 50+ generation but makes every audience shudder
Viewers liken the film to “Father Knows Best on a horror version”, combining family love with the fragile boundary of MA Barker-style violence. It’s a Western story with a touch of quiet horror – where the stunning mountain scenery only accentuates the isolation and impending danger.

Audience comments:

“A film worthy of adults – where every glance of Kevin Costner contains a lifetime of loss.”

“The story is haunting, the Weboy family is like a copy of the Snell family in Ozark, but rougher and more realistic.”

“The film is a bit slow, but that’s what makes the fear penetrate deep into every frame.”


Adapted from the novel by Larry Watson, director Thomas Bezucha chooses a slow rhythm to sharpen the tragedy, making every moment of confrontation between the two families become as tense as a bowstring.

Let Him Go is not just a thriller – but a silent scream of the elderly when facing loss, helplessness… but still refusing to let go of their love.

“Let Him Go is not just a journey to find a nephew – but a quiet epic of people who seem to have passed their time, but bravely enter hell for one thing only: family.”
