In the midst of the ultra-calibrated thrillers which flood Netflix with the sole concept of occupying our minds but without overly taxing our brains, the platform has just put online a thrilling end-to-end thriller, with an original storyline and the staging goes beyond the illustration – which makes us miss seeing it on the small screen. Rebel Ridge is the fifth feature film by Jeremy Saulnier, who offers us a stunning dive into a remote hole in the heart of the American hinterland, called Shelby Springs. A fictional town dominated by pure rednecks and plagued by corruption.
Terry Richmond (Aaron Pierre, a little-seen British actor who, thanks to this film, should be inundated with offers) is driving quietly on a small country road when a car hits him from behind, knocking him to the ground. It was a police patrol that he had not heard coming, having loud rock music in his ears. After a hardly legitimate search, the two cops discover that Terry is carrying $36,000 in cash. Although he explains to them that it is an amount intended to pay bail in order to get his cousin out of prison and to buy a used 4×4, nothing helps, they are certain that it is dirty money from drug trafficking, and seize it. Should we specify that Terry is African-American?
