💨 Abstract

"On Swift Horses," based on Shannon Pufahl's novel, explores the suppression of natural impulses in post-Korean War America through the story of Muriel, a seemingly perfect housewife with a secret gambling habit. The film, starring Daisy Edgar-Jones, delves into the struggles of hidden homosexuality and the impact of a dominant culture on individual desires.
