*Hostiles* (2017) is a gritty Western drama starring Christian Bale, Rosamund Pike, and Wes Studi. The film follows Captain Joseph Blocker (Bale), a hardened Army officer in 1892, tasked with escorting a dying Cheyenne war chief, Yellow Hawk (Studi), and his family back to their homeland in Montana. Initially resentful due to his years of fighting Native Americans, Blocker reluctantly agrees to the mission. Along the perilous journey, they encounter Rosalie Quaid (Pike), a grieving widow whose family was brutally slaughtered by Comanche raiders. As they navigate the treacherous landscape filled with hostiles—both human and environmental—Blocker and Yellow Hawk must confront their deep-seated hatred and prejudices.
