:D :D
Funny you should say that. We’re watching Wind River right now, though not in front of a sputtering fire. It’s cold and snow covered here, but it’s even more cold with even more snow cover than here, with a young woman frozen to death. Glutton for punishment, I guess. :|

Well, it is just a movie, but it was based on real events, so that’s sad in the end. Made by the same guy who makes Yellowstone and 1883 (Taylor Sheridan).
