Synopsis

Lawless

In 1931, the Bondurant brothers of Franklin County, Virginia, run a multipurpose backwoods establishment that hides their true business — bootlegging. Middle brother Forrest is the brain of the operation; older Howard is the brawn, and younger Jack, the lookout. Though the local police have taken bribes and left the brothers alone, a violent war erupts when a sadistic lawman from Chicago arrives and tries to shut down the Bondurants operation.

Where the Wind Blows

Chase, a rugged cowboy and solitary drifter who closed off his heart long ago—until the day he impulsively does a kindness for a beautiful young woman, and everything changes over the course of three days.
