In the book, the reader is aware of John's deteriorating mental condition in his final days, and the manner of his death in unambiguous. He tries to recover, physically and emotionally, but it's not long before he's self-medicating with alcohol and eventually hangs himself. The cruel rancher then berates and badly beats John. While Peter endures harassment at school, his father has a run-in with Phil and his crew. Some of the locals view him as soft, and gossip only intensifies when Rose gives birth to a strange, sickly son named Peter. He's a kind soul who often treats patients without making them pay, and he hasn't quite been able to provide his beautiful wife, Rose, with the life he promised her. John is depicted as skilled physician who isn't as ambitious as he could be. John Gordon and Phil Burbank are both young men trying to figure themselves out and make their way in the world. That doctor, named John Gordon, is the major difference between Savage's and Campion's versions of events. RELATED: Benedict Cumberbatch Really, Really Wants a Doctor Strange X-Men Team-Up The brothers, who are approaching middle age, still sleep together in their childhood bedroom, that is until George marries Rose ( Kirsten Dunst), the mother of a teenage boy, Peter (Kodi Smit-McPhee), and the widow of the local doctor. George (Jesse Plemons), who Phil calls "Fatso," doesn't have Phil's analytical brain or general knowledge, but he's good with numbers and enjoys the simple pleasures of a nice suit and a mixed drink with an umbrella in it.

Phil ( Benedict Cumberbatch) is the older brother he's intelligent and cultured, but he prefers the hard manual labor that ranch life requires. The Power of the Dog tells the story of the Burbank brothers, George and Phil, who went to live and work on the Montana ranch their wealthy parents purchased around 1900. However, one significant change (plus one performance choice) has led book readers and Netflix viewers to experience and interpret this gritty yet literary Western in very different ways.

The movie version revolves around the same basic plot and characters and teems with the same raw-nerved tension as Savage's original work. The novel wasn't a blockbuster in its day, but Annie Proulx (author of Brokeback Mountain) drew attention to it with an afterword she composed for its recent re-release, and now filmmaker Jane Campion has adapted it into what Netflix hopes will be a blockbuster of a film come Oscar nominations time. Thomas Savage's 1967 book The Power of the Dog was strikingly ahead of its time, both in terms of its gender-related themes and its early neo-Western style.
