I just watched Wind River last night, and I thought it was a great movie that really emphasized the isolation and lack of authority in places like Wyoming, especially on reservation land, even in the modern day.
However, I’m a little confused about one part during the climactic shootout scene shootout scene. At around 1:35 here, the leader of the private security force says that two of the guys on his side aren’t getting up. Then one of the security guys tries to get up, and the leader shoots him in the head immediately. Why? I’m probably just missing something super obvious, but I’m pretty sure he just killed one of his own contractors, right? At that point all the ‘good guys’ besides Elizabeth Olsen and Jeremy Renner were dead.

Probably would’ve been too much effort to keep him alive and quiet when he’s that seriously injured. It was just easier to kill him and get rid of the body.
