'Cassidy Red': Film Review | DWF 2017

As an alternate take on a male-driven genre, Matt Knudsen’s period Western features a female protagonist and plenty of talented women behind the scenes, but comes up short delivering on the expected character conflicts and action sequences. There are sufficient viewers, however, who might consider this approach intriguing enough to eventually seek out Cassidy Red on VOD or streaming platforms.

Not long after Mexico ceded large swaths of the Southwest and Arizona became a U.S. territory, settlers established the outpost of Ruby as a gold- and sliver-mining center. As the town took root, ancillary businesses sprang up, including the requisite saloons and bordellos, along with the marginally criminal types frequenting such establishments. Red-headed Josephine “Joe” Cassidy (Abigail Eiland ) emerges as a consequence of this dubious cultural development sometime in the 1850s , the illegitimate daughter of a bargirl and a bounty hunter.

Joe’s mother raises her in that house of ill repute, but when she’s preoccupied with customers, she sends Joe off to her father Cort’s (Rick Cramer) ranch, where she learns the essential skills of swearing and firearms handling. The utility of these particular talents doesn’t become clear until years later, when Joe embarks on a vengeful mission to save the love of her life from the gallows. You see, it seems that spending all that time on the ranch gave Joe the opportunity to solidify a competitive love triangle with her two young male neighbors. Tom (David Thomas Jenkins) is the boastful son of the town’s richest rancher, lording his status over Jakob (Jason Grasl ), his adopted Apache brother.

Although both are in love with Joe, Tom loses her to Jakob after she rejects his obsessive possessiveness, as well as his marriage offer. Even after he becomes the town’s sheriff he can’t seem to win her back, so he tries the next best thing: eliminating Jakob by jailing him on trumped-up murder charges. Now to get him back, Joe’s going to need all her wits, as well as those gunfighting skills, to outmaneuver Tom and his menacing henchmen.

Hollywood braces for big decline at summer box office.

Featuring a much lower body count than most Westerns, Knudsen’s feature relies primarily on relationship dynamics to raise the stakes. With such a small cast, however, it’s a stretch to build much tension, particularly when the three principal characters appear together in a limited number of scenes. An awkward narrative framing device and frequent shifts between time periods further disrupt plot cohesion as Knudsen’s script attempts to backfill the history of rivalry among the trio.

As the center of attention. Eiland’s Joe makes for an unpredictable firecracker, but her love for Jakob rarely seems as strong as her drive for revenge against Tom. Jenkins does his best to make Tom seem threatening, but comes across as more mean than menacing, while Grasl plays Jakob as non-confrontational to a fault.  

Knudsen and his team excel however in re-creating period details, with cinematographer Julia Swain washing the film’s dusty vistas in glowing golden light that emphasizes Lauren Ivy’s immersive production design and Brianna Quick’s realistic costumes.

Cassidy red (2017).

Cassidy Red (2017) DVD cover

She sees marriage to rancher Tom Hayes (David Thomas Jenkins) as a chance to start life anew.

But she can’t shake her yearnings for his adopted brother Jakob (Jason Grasl).

When Hayes returns home early from a trip to settle his deceased father’s affairs, he finds the two together.

He could have killed them. He decides to make them suffer, the way they’ve made him suffer.

So Hayes has himself elected sheriff so he’s the law in these here parts. When Joe slips out of town, he sees his chance to get even with Jakob.

In the process, he knows he’ll be able to lure Joe back to town.

After all, there’s no more effective way to hurt someone than to hurt someone they love.

The ploy works. Josephine, hair dyed blood red, is back in town. And she’s looking for revenge.

cassidy red movie review

I doubt this film is going to crack anyone’s Top 100 Westerns list. But in the barren landscape of 21st Century Westerns, it’s certainly worth viewing for fans of the genre.

The key twist is having a gun-toting female as a heroine. But the film also features a double-flashback format that helps it stand out. And if the “training” interlude during which Joe’s dad teaches her the art of handling a six-gun is way too overdone in Westerns, at least it’s handled well here.

Other pluses include a strong performance by Abby Eiland as Joe Cassidy and an even stronger one by Rick Cramer as her father.

There’s also a fabulous opening title sequence by Daniel Olivas that hearkens back to the days of Spaghetti Westerns and, if anything, sets the expectations for what’s to follow a bit too high.

The plot? It’s not particularly strong. One wonders how much that had to do with budget constraints.

But even then, having Tom’s Indian-hating father adopt an Apache as a second son and having absolutely no one react when Cassidy’s father bursts into jail and guns down a deputy seems a bit far fetched.

Cassidy, when Rowena hands her a derringer: “It’s a whore’s gun.” Rowena, as Cassidy changes into her mother’s clothes: “Well, that sure as hell ain’t no missionary’s costume.”

Cassidy to her dad Cort: “You and I have both had something taken from us. You can’t hunt down consumption, but I can put a bullet in the heart of that seed sucker that killed Jakob and made a slave out of Harley.”

Cort, about avenging Jakob: “Stomping into a suicide mission to avenge some Apache bastard who gives you the vapors ain’t the way I planned on ending my life.”

Cort, during Cassidy’s shooting lesson: “What the hell are you closing one eye for? Close one eye, you’re just going to see half as much. Plus you’ll end up spraying wide cause you ain’t got no depth perception.”

Tom Hayes: “You may think this woman loves you, Jakob. And you may be right. But I can goddamn well guarantee you she ain’t got the necessary faculties to love your ass half as much as she hates mine. She truly is her father’s daughter.”

That Moment In

Cassidy Red Review

'  data-src=

Cassidy Red is a 2018 western/romance about a prostitute who returns to her hometown, seeking vengeance against the corrupt lawman.

The western has predominantly been a man’s game. From wily sheriffs and marshals cleaning up the town to ranchers just trying to make living against rascally bandits looking to take over their land. Woman have mostly been on the peripheral, either as unlucky prostitutes at the local saloon or maidens in distress. Fortunately, a few movies have slowly begun to change that, with  Sharon Stone ‘s 1995 shoot ’em up  The Quick and the Dead   and more recently  Natalie Portman ‘s  Jane Got a Gun to name a few. Now comes  Matt Knudsen ‘s Cassidy Red , a film that at least keeps the western alive and plays close to the tropes while remaining mostly entertaining.

In a smoky, desperately empty, brothel, a weathered looking piano player named Cricket ( Gregory Zaragoza ) tickles the ivories with a sallow tune while a young prostitute with a shiner saunters up and takes a seat, looking for a story and a break from the hard life. She gets one, the tale of  Cassidy Red, a ballad of love and hate. He takes us back to 1874 where Josephine Cassidy ( Abby Eiland ) is the daughter of a saloon girl and a hired gun named Cort ( Rick Cramer ). Joe grew up with a gun in her hand, becoming a skilled shooter all her own and one day saves a Native American boy named Yazzie from bully Tom Hayes. Years later, however, she agrees to marry the troublesome Tom ( David Thomas Jenkins ) with the promise of a new life, but when Yazzie, now Jakob, ( Jason Grasl ) enters her life again, some old flames rekindle and this spells trouble all around. Now she’s out for revenge.

Right away, Cassidy Red isn’t a timid movie. Cassidy take a beating just as well as any of her counterpart men have, doing it in a frilly dress and fiery red hair. Eiland is a strong presence, taking the reigns of sorts with plenty of female sensuality and loads of empowerment. The film splits itself into three main parts with the storyteller one, Red’s younger years another, and her as a woman, third, not entirely told in sequence. The best are the middle ones when Cort and young Josephine ( Alyssa Elle Steinacker ) is under the tutelage of her father. Cramer is well cast and adds the most weight to the story. It’s good to get a little backstory on Cassidy and Knudsen, who also wrote the screenplay, manages these three threads mostly well.

Performances all around are sort of uneven and there’s not a lot of momentum, with a laid back organ-heavy score that keeps the whole thing feeling a little more like a well-made television movie of the week than a feature film. However, this is a solid western tale, if not conventionally driven. Cassidy is a compelling character and clearly inline with current social justice thinking, as well it should be, and for fans of westerns, plenty fun. While it may lack the numerous action landmarks of its predecessors, Cassidy Red is nonetheless worth a look.

I watch a lot of bad movies, but I lost interest in Cassidy Red (2017) like few other I've seen. Which tells you how poorly this potentially cool redhead western story was told.

Review by Warren Gilbert ★★★

2017 Films Ranked

A piano man tells a prostitute the story of Cassidy Red (Abby Eiland), a woman who returns home to seek vengeance on a corrupt lawman (David Thomas Jenkins) who she believes has killed her man (Jason Grasl) set in the American southwest in the late 19th century. The film switches between the man telling the story and flashbacks of the title character.

Cassidy Red opens with some nice animated opening credits that are probably computer generated, but have a nice pencil drawn look to them. Many elements are decently done from the look of the film, locations, and music, but nothing really stands out. The flashbacks from Cassidy's childhood are highlights, while the adult versions are a…

Review by Kim_Cardassian ★½

Cassidy Red was produced as a thesis film project for UCLA's MFA Directing program. That in itself is pretty damn impressive, and goes a long way to explaining why this feels so much like a high-budget YouTube film.

I came into the film on the basis of what sounded like a really good idea; essentially a feminist take on Unforgiven. Josephine "Joe" Cassidy (who is blonde in flashbacks and redheaded in the present) is seen falling in love with an Apache boy, much to the displeasure of her ex-husband. The film unfolds through three separate plot threads; Joe Cassidy's past, Joe Cassidy's revenge as "Cassidy Red", and the story of Cassidy Red being told to a prostitute by someone who…

Lyrical Western about love, hate, sacrifice and redemption

The firecracker daughter (Abby Eiland) of an alcoholic gunslinger and a prostitute makes an enemy of the local mogul in southern Arizona (David Thomas Jenkins). When her beloved is captured under trumped-up charges and feared dead (Jason Grasl), she has to turn to her lousy father (Rick Cramer) in order to set things a’right.
