And therein lies the key to how these negative considerations reveal what is actually an underlying brilliance of almost inconceivably sinister subtlety. As events roll out that incorporate Dixon into the main plot, he seems to undergo a remarkably rapid redemption which critics have labeled “offensive” and prosecuted as detrimental to the character development of Mildred. Dixon spends much of the film as a completely loathsome character energized by hate which is particularly fueled by racism. The most controversial allegation of a failure of logic in the construction of the narrative is centered upon the character of Jason Dixon (despite Sam Rockwell winning an Oscar for his performance). Considering that the film generated mostly positive reviews and that the outlying negative critiques were not directed toward any cinematic aspects (acting, directing, cinematography, etc.) it stands to reason that the “bad” reviews were centered upon storyline flaws. Oddly enough, the true brilliance of this film can be located not in the positive reviews, but in those forwarding certain negative perspectives.
