 In this episode of *Movies First*, Chris and Jessica embark on a compelling journey into the world of *The Unholy Trinity*, a film that aims to breathe new life into the Western genre. With only three major Western releases anticipated in 2024, this unique project by Australian filmmakers Lee Zachariah and Richard Grey stands out by drawing parallels between the frontier mythologies of Australia and America. The hosts explore the film's gripping opening scene set in 1873, where the tension escalates as Isaacman Broadway, moments from execution, demands revenge from his estranged son, Henry.

As the narrative unfolds in the town of Trinity, the hosts discuss the layers of deception and missed connections, particularly highlighting Samuel L. Jackson's charismatic performance as St. Christopher, whose clever timing adds depth to the story. In contrast, Pierce Brosnan's portrayal of Sheriff Gabriel Dove brings a stoic gravitas, creating a dynamic interplay between restraint and flamboyance. Brandon Lessard's Henry Broadway embodies a more contemporary moral complexity, effectively representing the evolving nature of the Western genre.

Chris and Jessica delve into the film's exploration of violence and moral ambiguity, noting how it navigates the gray areas often overlooked in traditional Westerns. Despite its modern take, the film delivers a satisfying conclusion where good triumphs over evil, tying together complex themes of justice, redemption, and mistaken identity in a way that feels earned.

The hosts appreciate the film's authentic production design, capturing the gritty reality of frontier life, which contrasts sharply with the polished aesthetics of classic Westerns. As they discuss the film's relevance in today's society, they ponder whether *The Unholy Trinity* could spark a revival of the genre, inviting fresh perspectives that honor its roots while pushing boundaries. With a rating of 6 out of 10, Chris and Jessica conclude that this film, while not without its flaws, is a refreshing attempt to reinvigorate a once-dominant genre.
