As Peter Gordon in Jane Campion’s new movie The Power Of The Dog, Kodi Smit-McPhee is practically a beacon of otherness. He’s tall, pale, and thin when everyone else on-screen is rugged and worn. He’s effeminate and self-assured, and he’s got a predilection for fine details and book learning. He barely knows how to ride a horse, and his new jeans—bought by his mother so he fits in on the ranch—are as stiff as a board.
All of that is to say, Kodi Smit-McPhee is really great in The Power Of The Dog, a movie that relies on his character to set all of its other players in motion. When The A.V. Club sat down with Smit-McPhee for a recent chat, we asked him about Peter’s self-confidence and sense of purpose.

I'm unsure what Patrick O'Riley thought about this film…
I may get hate and abuse but let me confess anyways, I think kodi is far better than tom holland and timothee, i said it lmao
Such an awesome character created by Kodi, with psychological submerge into the depth of inner desires, concealed temptations…
