A brilliant neo-western that takes risks aplenty and gets its rewards. Strong performances all round, although particular mention must go to Ben Foster who de- livers a career best. This film also firmly established writer Taylor Sheridan (Sicario, Wind River), as one of the best scriptwriters of his generation. If you are looking for an insight into the new west, look no further than here folks! – Liam UNFORGIVEN (USA 1992) Directed by and starring CLINT! One of my favorite Westerns with my favorite actor. The line “It’s a hell of a thing, killing a man “ensures Eastwood delivers a raw well-constructed western that is a daring and provocative vision of the old west. Great performances also from Gene Hackman and Morgan Freeman. The violence feels remarkably realistic and the extraordinarily thrilling climatic shootout is worth the wait! – Jamie THE GRAND DUEL (Italy 1972) Ex-Sheriff (Lee Van Cleef) tracks down and begrudgingly helps a man framed for murder in this fantastic Spaghetti Western. Opening with a very 'flippy' gunfight and escape, things just get better as these two trade barbs while beinchased across country. This criminally underseen Spaghetti Western is totally worth your time – Phil BACK TO THE FUTURE PART III (USA 1990) The finale to the time-travelling trilogy has just turned 30! With cameos from legends of the genre, ZZ Top and paying homage to the classic western, it makes for a time travelling yet timeless family classic. – Valentina OTHER RECOMMENDATIONS.
