Published: Jan. 26, 2021, 7:07 p.m.

Cerise and Vicky don their ten gallon hats, dig up a dead horse and explore the underbelly of the American dream by adding five western noirs to their list of every movie ever made. 9:21 - No Man's Land (2021, Conor Allyn) - White people learn dubious lessons about racism while Cerise and Vicky roll their eyes. 26:54 - Bad Day At Black Rock (1955, John Sturges) - Spencer Tracy teaches dubious lessons about racism by burning a racist alive. Cerise and Vicky appreciate the second part. 43:08 - Badlands (1973, Terrence Malick) - Terrence Malick teaches valuable lessons about filmmaking. Vicky is less than appeciative. 1:03:11 - Red Rock West (1993, John Dahl) - Nic Cage and Dennis Hopper don't teach any lessons at all, and Cerise and Vicky are grateful. 1:17:18 - The Proposition (2005, John Hillcoat) - Cerise and Vicky learn about a movie that nobody remembers and Cerise runs out of things to say
