  • I really enjoyed your commentary on this my favorite film. I love everything about this movie (the score and cast is superior to Unforgiven, as is the entire film in my opinion). Even Clint feels that it is the equal of Unforgiven. For me it is the humanity that underlies his character and the themes regarding war, community, and acceptance of others which gets me everytime. etc.

  • Hey Ten Bears - yeah I agree that this is better than Unforgiven. This and Million Dollar Baby are my favorite Eastwood-directed films. Thanks for watching and hope you can check out my other video essays.

  • Little doubt this is Clin'ts best western and one of the greatest westerns ever made. The casting is unbelievable. All the characters have depth and the dialogue is simply great. And of course the directing is outstanding. This is one of the movies where the animal wranglers did a wonderful job. The spitting is an ongoing theme of Josey's disdain for his situation, brought on by the killing of his family. And he was willing to kill until he was killed to avenge his family's murders.

  • a man that refused to stop fighting the union...the tyranny that enslaved america.. the liars that rape and enslave us all...you know, the one you pledge allegiance to

  • Dying ain't much of a livin' boy...

  • We see there are at least two ppl w/less sense than god gave a jackass.

  • Download the audio from this tune at thetunify doht cohm.

  • Love seeing Union feds get it. Nice.

  • I like the video essay, although in it you supply the very reasons that Clint is a major artist of the likes of John Ford.

  • GONE TO TEXAS! I geuss we all died a little in that damn war! This movie is based on a book by forrest carter who himself is a somewhat controversial figure. This movie has a much deeper meaning to southern political thought and is a sort of revenge by the southern people against intruders and josey is the flaming sword there to defend her.The movie is off the scale.
