Mackenna's Gold/The Missing

In MACKENNA'S GOLD, a US Marshall and a Mexican bandit are involved in an explosive saga leading a gang of renegades and outlaws in a deadly search for a lost canyon of gold. But conflicts, doublecrosses and mysterious clues bring out tempers and complications. In THE MISSING, Cate Blanchett brings intense realism to the role of Maggie Gilkeson, a New Mexico cattle rancher who dabbles in the healing arts. Her long-estranged father Samuel Jones (Tommy Lee Jones) is mistaken for an Indian when he inexplicably shows up on her property hoping for reconciliation. He abandoned his family years earlier to adopt a Native American identity. An embittered Maggie sends him away, but capitulates when her eldest daughter Lilly (Evan Rachel Wood) is kidnapped by a band of psychotic Apache killers. When the local sheriff and the US Army balk at chasing the perpetrators, a desperate Maggie turns to her father, praying he is sufficiently savvy in tribal ways to save her daughter.
