Can someone explain the ending??? Hard movie to follow, timeline wise. No mention of the time lapse between scenes. Again, the ending...no idea what happened. Did someone die? Did the guy get the land??

It is a shame this movie is missing a script, a plot , a story, there aren't even actual entire scenes, because it gets right plenty of the elements that make a great movie. The cast is overall excellent with every actor looking the part. The cinematography is fine, the locations spot on, there really isn't a false note in the entire film. The problem is, it is a stretch to even call this a film, it just seems to be a lot of rugged men and horses wandering around with very little dialogue and no scenes. We get snippets of scenes, but you can't even tell how much time is passing, why characters are acting the way they do, and in the end it's hard to feel anything for any of them. I have no idea what this was really about. All the actors are very attractive and if you want to spend time watching handsome rugged men, pal around, occasionally fight a little and do lots of walking, this is a must see. Chantz Marcus , who looks like a male model, is actually OK in the lead role but he's given so little to do, and yet he has to carry the film it would seem on his looks alone. The camera is on him quite a bit, but the guys who play his rough and tumble brothers and Alice Barrett as his mother, steal the limelight from him in what little screen time they have. If only the film had a script.

I caught this film casually on TV, I was not instantly hooked but somehow could not get myself to switch channels, and am glad I did not. What is remarkable in this film is that it did not seek to present sympathetic or likable characters, it presented characters and their relations to each other, amid hard living conditions, reminding me of Italian "realistic" films made in the sixties in black and white, sometimes filmed in slums near big cities, and reflecting the lives of real people, and not always offering solutions or happy endings. "Breaker" should be a good example of what independent film makers can do (I hope the crew of this film gets good recognition and future opportunities, their effort here is award stuff),and it is a relief that amid mega blockbusters, noisy action films, and CGI studded productions, we see such films. And for those who worry about happy endings, the film is not as bleak as you might think ! Well deserved 9 stars.
