A keen observer of America's social fabric, writer-director John Sayles uncovers the haunted past buried beneath a small Texas border town in this sprawling neowestern mystery. When a skeleton is discovered in the desert, lawman Sam Deeds (Chris Cooper), son of a legendary local sheriff, begins an investigation that will have profound implications both for him personally and for all of Rio County, a place still reckoning with its history of racial violence. Sayles's masterful film-novelistic in its intricacy and featuring a brilliant ensemble cast, including Joe Morton, Elizabeth Peña, and Kris Kristofferson-quietly subverts national mythmaking and lays bare the fault lines of life at the border.<br/><br/>DIRECTOR-APPROVED 4K UHD + BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES<br/>New 4K digital restoration, supervised by director John Sayles and director of photography Stuart Dryburgh, with 2.0 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack<br/><br/>One 4K UHD disc of the film presented in Dolby Vision HDR and one Blu-ray with the film and special features<br/><br/>New conversation between Sayles and filmmaker Gregory Nava<br/><br/>New interview with Dryburgh<br/><br/>Trailer<br/><br/>English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing<br/><br/>PLUS: An essay by scholar Domino Renee Perez<br/><br/>New cover by Jacob Phillips

In 1920s Chicago, ambitious Italian immigrant Tony Camonte (Muni) works his way up through the ranks of a bootlegging operation. As he ruthlessly takes out his competition, he becomes more powerful and draws attention from other gangsters as well as the police, who want to put a stop to his violent activities. However, it is his relationship with his younger sister Francesca (Dvorak), of whom he is fiercely overprotective, which will bring about his ruin.
