Pale Rider / The Searchers / Outlaw Josey Wales / The Wild Bunch / Pat Garrett And Billy The Kid DVD
The Outlaw Josey Wales:
As the Outlaw Josey Wales, Academy Award winner Clint Eastwood is ideally cast as a hard-hitting, fast drawing loner, recalling his "Man with No Name" from his European Westerns. After avenging his family's brutal murder, Wales is on the run, pursued by a pack of killers. eastwood's skill before and behind the camera connected with audiences for its humour and tenderness as well as its hair-trigger action.
Pale Rider:
After corporate mining boss Coy LaHood (Richard Dysart) begins a terror campaign to drive independent pan miners out of the area, a stranger called Preacher (Eastwood) rides into the underdog's camp. He becomes their avenger. The tycoon then hires a badge-wearing killer and his duster-shrouded deputies, men loyal to whomever pays the most. LaHood pays in gold. But in a climactic shootout to remember, Preacher pays in lead.
Pat Garrett And Billy The Kid:
They are fast friends and worse foes. One is Billy the Kid (Kris Kristofferson), a law unto himself. The other is the law: Sheriff Pat Garrett (James Coburn), who once rode with Billy. Set to a bristling score by Bob Dylan (who also plays Billy's sidekick Alias) and with a `Who's Who' of iconic Western players, Sam Peckinpah's saga of one of the West's great legends is now restored to its intended glory.
The Searchers:
John Wayne plays an ex-Confederate soldier seeking his niece, captured by Comanches who massacred his family. He won't surrender to hunger, thirst, the elements or loneliness. And in his five-year search, he encounters something unexpected: his own humanity.
The Wild Bunch:
By any standard, director Sam Peckinpah’s film The Wild Bunch, a powerful tale of hangdog desperados bound by a code of honour, rates as one of the all-time greatest Westerns, perhaps one of the greatest of all films. This original Director's Cut restores it to a complete, pristine condition unseen since its July 1969 theatrical debut.
