Unforgiven

Clint Eastwood sure waltzed away from the Oscars with a fistfull of gold for this gnarly number. An uncliched a "western" as you will ever find, Eastwood just shines here as the "retired" killer forced back into action by neccesity. As great as Clint is, he is easily matched by Gene Hackman, and UNFORGIVEN also features some fine work from Morgan Freeman and the late Richard Harris. Even non-western fans will enjoy this one.
