Product Description:
Movie DVD
Amazon.com essential video:
Winner of four Academy Awards, including best picture, director, supporting actor, and best editing, Clint Eastwood's 1992 masterpiece stands as one of the greatest and most thematically compelling Westerns ever made."The movie summarized everything I feel about the Western," said Eastwood at the time of the film's release. "The moral is the concern with gunplay." To illustrate that theme, Eastwood stars as a retired, once-ruthless killer-turned-gentle-widower and hog farmer. He accepts one last bounty-hunter mission--to find the men who brutalized a prostitute--to help support his two motherless children. Joined by his former partner (Morgan Freeman) and a cocky greenhorn (Jaimz Woolvett), he takes on a corrupt sheriff (Oscar winner Gene Hackman) in a showdown that makes the viewer feel the full impact of violence and its corruption of the soul. Dedicated to Eastwood's mentors Sergio Leone and Don Siegel and featuring a colorful role for Richard Harris, it's arguably Eastwood's crowning directorial achievement. --Jeff Shannon

- "I've Killed Everything That Walked Or Crawled..."
Hands-down the best modern day western ever made. Forget Appaloosa or 3:10 to Yuma, this is it! An all-star cast including Eastwood, Morgan Freeman, & Gene Hackman playing the ruthless sherrif bad guy. A must-have for Eastwood or Western collectors! Kick back & take a trip to Big Whiskey while enjoying it all on 1080 blu-ray.

- My Favorite Western
I LOVE Westerns, and this is by far my all-time favorite. Here is America's greatest movie genre, the Western, writ large, with three (count 'em) three gunslingers who rise to mythic proportions: William Monie (Eastwood), Little Bill (Gene Hackman), and English Bob (Richard Harris). It's got it all: sex, violence, some tenderness and even plenty of humor. Great lines, and the best shoot-out at the end I've ever seen. I have to grab a bowl of popcorn and turn off all the lights for the last 15 minutes ... Read More

- Second greatest western?
I wrestle with my mind wondering whether this is the second greatest westerb ever made or just where it sits or whether one should divide quality ratings by time period.
I'll just go the simple route and say that in my opinion Clints movie, The Unforgiven, sits only behind Fords, The Searchers, as the greatest western ever brought to film.
I screwed up and bought the DVD after seeing the movie "in house". I should have forseen the development of Blu Ray and waited. Now I am fighting with ... Read More
