Tale
A modern tale of seeking fortune in the world of West Texas oil rigs
Watch the most popular movies and TV shows by writer/director Taylor Sheridan on IMDb, ranked by user ratings. A Landman, at least one who works in the oil industry, will act as an intermediary between exploration companies and landowners.
Essentially, they manage the land and secure leases, so they can drill for oil and gas
Typically, a Landman’s job is to negotiate and finalize contracts with landowners with mineral rights to lease those rights to the company they represent. Like a foreman on a construction site, they build roads, man-camps, assemble the excavation machinery, and drill the well itself, especially in remote locations.
Quoted in CBS News Sunday Morning: Episode No
They are also part Fixer, Problem Solver, and Facilitator. 44.24 (2022).
It is another hit for Sheridan
I have to start by saying that I am a huge fan of almost anything Taylor Sheridan (Yellowstone, Mayor of Kingstown, 1923, 1883, Tulsa King, Lioness, Sicario, Hell or Highwater, Wind River, etc., etc.). He hits home run after home run and Landman is no exception.
Landman is set in modern day Texas where everyone from billionaires to hoodlums are trying to get rich in the oil industry
This series follows Tommy Norris (Billy Bob Thornton) as he tries to take his company to the top during the oil boom. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a good new series to watch, especially if you are a fan of Taylor Sheridan.
