Product Description

In this radically reimagined American Western set towards the end of the Civil War, Southerner Augusta (Brit Marling, Arbitrage, The East) encounters two renegade, drunken soldiers (Sam Worthington, Avatar & Kyle Soller, BBC's "Poldark") who are on a mission of pillage and violence. After escaping an attempted assault, Augusta races back to the isolated farmhouse that she shares with her sister Louise (Hailee Steinfeld, True Grit, Pitch Perfect 2) and their female slave Mad (newcomer Muna Otaru.) When the pair of soldiers track Augusta down intent on exacting revenge, the trio of women are forced to take up arms to fend off their assailants, finding ways to resourcefully defend their home--and themselves--as the escalating attacks become more unpredictable and relentless.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great End of Civil War Movie
Reviewed in the United States on December 5, 2021
Verified Purchase
I found this movie to be a very realistic portrayal of the end of the Civil War. The story of three southern women trying to protect their home; two sisters and their slave are the only ones left. Agusta is the older sister. She is intelligent and responsible and is keeping them safe. The yanks have sent ahead soldiers to plunder the homesteads. These are not pleasant men. Raping and pillaging is their game. The acting is excellent. The story believable. Plenty of action. And a perfect ending.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Civil War Straw Dogs
Reviewed in the United States on May 8, 2020
Verified Purchase
This film basically takes the incident from Gone With The Wind where Scarlett shoots a Union soldier and Melly helps her hide the body and fleshes it out into a full length film described as a revisionist Western, but it strikes me as more accurately characterized as a horror movie with a naturalistic, Civil War setting.

Two sisters, Augusta and Louise, and a female slave, Mad, struggle to survive at subsistence level on their Georgia farm during the menfolk’s absence, any forest game long ago hunted out, living off potato and carrot stew.

A full plate of misery turns into a veritable brimming cornucopia of woe and pain in the form of two bummers from Sherman’s army, sent ahead to reconnoiter supplies for advancing Union columns, but instead using the opportunity to engage in plunder, arson, and murder. The film’s opening scene introducing them is a tightly constructed, Grand Guignol pageant of horrid savagery that effectively frames both characters and the arc their nihilistic souls will follow. A sight of the attractive Augusta at a local tavern, on a desperate quest to find medicine for her raccoon bit sister, is enough to set the bummers after her. They arrive at night and a frantic siege of the farmhouse ensues, marked by rapidly escalating tension, violence, and rape. This part of the film reminded me of Straw Dogs where Dustin Hoffman fought off intruders, also while besieged in a remote farmhouse.

Strong performances are given by everyone in the film, but particular credit goes to Brit Marling as Augusta, Sam Worthington as the head thug Moses, and especially Muna Otaru as Mad the family slave. Marling is convincing as an innately strong, beautiful young Southern woman, determined to preserve herself and her own no matter what, a true, brave lady as shown by her constant, selfless devotion and physical courage. Worthington is an interesting study of a villainous monster with sympathetic human flashes, confessing at one point he doesn’t know how to stop what he’s doing. The acting palm definitely goes to Otaru though with her portrayal of a young woman who’s experienced the absolute worst slavery has to offer, but still remains indomitable, dead game, ready to fight to the bitter end.

Although not didactic, this film faces some hard truths about American history, how the Civil War in general and Sherman’s March in particular were perfect settings for men to indulge in the very worst of human nature, becoming outright murderous psychopaths, the pure, steadily gnawing terror of women alone and near defenseless on an isolated farmstead, and the sheer, disgusting misery of slavery. Yet even with all that heavy import, it’s still one hell of a horror movie with fast pacing, grotesque, disturbing imagery, and gritty, realistic violence.

This film isn’t for the squeamish. It also doesn’t seem to fit the Western genre. I recommend it to horror fans and Civil War buffs.

One of the better movies I've seen recently. Watched it at one sitting, which is unusual for me. Good music, good photography. Mad's performance was great. Louise I did not like. Augusta was good, trying to hold it all together. While the boys were off fighting, the women back home were having a rough time of it. That's what the movie is about. As I said, I loved it.

Excellent film about three Southern women at the end of the Civil War - two sisters, Augusta and Louise, and their slave, Mad - who fight off two renegade, violent Union soldiers. The pace might seem a bit slow; however, this film is never tedious - in fact, it's extremely intense and involving. The music is beautiful and haunting. Additionally, it's refreshing and encouraging to see a Western in which the women are strong and resourceful. "The Keeping Room" is highly recommended.

1.0 out of 5 stars Too Violent
Reviewed in the United States on April 1, 2016

The movie was far too Violent. The idea was interesting but the concept of three women alone in the west without any protection and being chased and assaulted by brutal cowboys was too much to enjoy. We stopped the movie as it seemed so naïve, hopeless and ugly to watch.

2.0 out of 5 stars Could have been much better!
Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2016
Verified Purchase
Pros: great storyline, depicted how life was at the end of the American Civil War. No candy coat... All the violence was purposeful and realistic. These people had a hard life, both men at war and the women back home. Everyone suffered. Beautiful scenery and special effects. Cons: no narration of history ( which would have made it so much better). Not much explanation and history given of this family. Poor character development and all the people in the movie just MUMBLED most of the time. This was a huge detraction!
Worth watching but lacked something... Could have been a really great epic historical saga. I did think the ending was interesting and believable. They had to survive and what they did was probably their best bet. 2 and a half stars I would rate.

4.0 out of 5 stars "Why do you come like you want a war?"
Reviewed in Germany on November 25, 2016

"The Keeping Room - Bis zur letzten Kugel" [OT: The Keeping Room] ist ein Drama aus dem Jahre 2014, bei welchem Daniel Barber Regie führte. Die Handlung des Films spielt zu Zeiten des Amerikanischen Bürgerkrieges.

Fast alle Männer sind im Krieg und somit sind die meisten Frauen auf sich alleine gestellt. In Kriegszeiten kann dies für eine Frau nur wenig Gutes bedeutet. Dies weiß auch Augusta, welche zusammen mit ihrer Schwester und der farbigen Dienstmagd Moll, auf der Farm ihres Vaters auf das Ende des Krieges warten. Als Augustas Schwester eines Tages von einem Waschbären gebissen wird, begibt sich Augusta auf die nicht ungefährliche Reise zu ihren Nachbarn, um Medikamente zu besorgen. Augusta erregt die Aufmerksamkeit von zwei Soldaten, welche ihrer Spur sogleich folgen.

"The Keeping Room - Bis zur letzten Kugel" hat meiner Meinung nach ein Problem, welches er sich mit vielen Filmen teilt... Die Vermarktung. Der deutsche Untertitel "Bis zur letzten Kugel" suggeriert etwas, was der Film eigentlich überhaupt nicht hat, und zwar Action. Der Film besticht durch seine Charaktere und ruhige Erzählweise. Der Film ist kein Western, er hat keine Kampfszenen... er hat aber persönliche Dramen. Wer sich auf diese einlassen kann, könnte auch gefallen an der Geschichte finden. Wer aber "Women with Guns" erwartet, welche jedem zeigen, was Sache ist, wird enttäuscht sein.
Der Film bietet sehr gute schauspielerische Leistungen von allen Beteiligten. Hervorzuheben sind meiner Meinung nach klar Brit Marling (Augusta) und Muna Otaru (Moll), welche oft alleine durch ihre Mimik Bände sprechen. Aber wie gesagt, ist auch der restliche Cast nicht zu verachten.

FAZIT: Ein ruhiger Film, der eine von vielen Geschichten erzählt, welche so (ähnlich) zu Zeiten des Bürgerkrieges passiert sein könnten. Action bietet der Film allerdings keine.

2.0 out of 5 stars Schwacher Western
Reviewed in Germany on September 27, 2019
Verified Purchase
Little White Lies betitelten den Film mit "Ein atemloser Western". Damit werden sie ihrem Namen gerecht, denn diese Beschreibung ist schlicht gelogen!

Ein spannungsarmer Film über drei Frauen - zwei Schwestern und ihre Sklavin - im ländlichen Süden während des Bürgerkriegs. Zwei Späher der Nordstaaten durchstreifen das Land, plündern und morden ohne Konsequenz (Anmerkung: General Shermans Befehl weder Land noch Leute zu schonen um dem Süden eine "Lektion" zu erteilen). Doch die Frauen wollen sich nicht fügen und leisten Widerstand...

Die ersten 20 Minuten sind total für die Fische. Eintöniges, langweiliges Farmleben bis die eine Schwester von einem Waschbären gebissen wird und die andere Medikamente am Handelsposten besorgen will.
Dann folgen über 20 Minuten Spannungsaufbau zum Finale, dem Feuergefecht Nachts. Fast der gesamte Trailer wurde aus diesem Material geschnitten, wobei Feuergefecht deutlich übertrieben als Beschreibung ist.

Regiesseur Daniel Barber kann das besser (man nehme Harry Brown). Und das "von den Produzenten von" gar nichts aussagt, beweist dieser Film. Denn mit dem Niveau von "True Detective" hat dieser B-Movie gar nichts.
