As Julie’s time with Allison is coming to a dangerous close, Julie is given two chances of escape, with two very different men… The story of PAINTED WOMAN is two distinct chapters in Julie's life, with each chapter mirroring the other.

Very best movie i ever watch
everything you have heard about this movie is true.
A Major Disappointment
When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
Plot spoilers. Kyle Allison (Robert Craighead) is a rich man who lives with a woman he got out of a brothel. When he tires if her, because she looked at one of his guests, he swaps her in for a younger model. Frank Dean (Matt Dallas) the man she looked out, is hired to kill her by Allison. Julie (Stef Dawson) our painted woman manages to escape because our professional assassin forgot to load his weapon and can't track a pale woman in girly shoes and a dress in the woods in moonlight. And then she is suddenly on horseback, she got from...?Now Julie must die because...? I am not sure why. There is a mention of the Apache having a painted woman ceremony to celebrate womanhood, which doesn't really tie into the film unless you count a poorly developed dream. Now I love women revenge films, especially when they get revenge in slow creative painful ways. A shot to the chest. Not so much. Guide: No swearing or nudity. Poorly Implied sex scene.
I took a shot at this based on a few early rave reviews of 9 and 10. This ain't Unforgiven. A young woman works at a bordello in Kentucky in 1899. It seems as she has become the mistress of the owner in a beautiful house. He hires a really nasty man to beat up people who owe him money. After a while he tires of his young mistress and she seeks freedom from him. A good guy appears and the rest is pretty formula; nothing new here. The lead actress is Australian but she manages a southern accent fairly well. The cast is competent and the story moves along without any dead spots. The scenery is nice and the ending a bit of a surprise. Overall, it is o.k.
This historical drama is centered around a women who fights her way out of subjugation and into a life with meaning, love, and acceptance. You can tell there was time and thought put into her visual progression of her life. Kudos to the filmmaker for complimenting her journey by making these artistic and technical choices!
I recommend Painted Woman not only for its excellent story but also for how it executes that story. The pacing allows room for the characters to breath--their intentions to play out when they're not speaking. Director James Cotten draws the audience into caring for everyone on screen without forcing us to. Painted Woman is not a cookie cutter that holds your hand the entire time. It's also beautifully shot; many moments are very elegant. Overall, "elegant" is a great word to describe it.If you enjoy film for the art within, and for the beauty, go see Painted Woman.
