Unforgiven (1992)

Eastwood's masterpiece
TheManWithNoName - wrote on 08/17/09

Unforgiven is probably the best movie directed by Clint Eastwood. Unforgiven showed the more gritty side of the frontier and didn't really glorify outlaws the way some of the older westerns did. Clint Eastwood gives an Academy Award nominated performance as William Munny, a retired outlaw who goes to Wyoming to kill two cowboys who cut up a prostitute since he is short on money. He used to be ruthless before he got married, but now his wife is dead and his farm is contaminated with a flu. Morgan Freeman co stars as his partner, and Gene Hackman gives a performance worthy of the Oscar he received as Little Bill, a man who used to be an outlaw but is now sheriff of the town in Wyoming. This is probably the last great western (although the remake of 3:10 to Yuma was pretty good), so check it out.
