De Professionelle (1966)
Fire lykkeriddere hyres af en rig oliebaron, fra Texas, til at befri hans kidnappede kone, der er blevet smuglet over den mexicanske grænse af en bande lejemordere anført af Jesus Raza. De fire barske professionelle har hver sit speciale: Der er en skarpskytte og sporer, en sprængstofekspert, en hesteekspert og en, der kender til taktik og våben. De tager af sted gennem det forræderiske landskab for at hente den smukke kvinde tilbage, men i det eksplosive klimaks opdager de, at ikke alt er, som man skulle tro.
Cat Ballou (1965)
Denne hysteriske morsomme western - der til dato stadig står som en af de skæggeste og mest gennemførte film - gav Lee Marvin en velfortjent Oscar, for sit storspil som den fordrukne gunslinger. Med sig har han Jane Fonda som Cat Ballou, der hyrer ham til at forsvare sin far mod en frygtelig morder. Desværre går det ikke helt som planlagt og Cat må nu hanke op i den tørstige mesterskytte for at få hævn. En rigtig klassiker fra den gang hvor en film blev lavet for at underholde.
Ulzanas sidste kamp (1972)
En ung kavaleri-officer (Bruce Davison) får til opgave at bringe en Apache indianer, der er stukket af fra reservatet, tilbage i folden. Burt Lancaster spiller en erfaren spejder, der hjælper ham på den seje færd. I denne maskuline western er der ingen helte og ingen skurke. I modsætning til holdningen i film som Little Big Man og Dances With Wolves fremstilles indianerne ikke som uskyldige forfulgte. Ejheller som blodtørstige mordere.
Soldier Blue (1970)
Soldier Blue er et gribende drama, der fortæller historien om den amerikanske soldat Honus Grants kamp og om den hvide kvinde Cresta, der har været holdt som fange af indianerne i to år. Filmen bygger på de grusomme hændelser på det historiske møde mellem kavaleriet og Cheyenne-indianerne. Honus og Cresta er de eneste overlevende efter et Cheyenne-overfald på en gruppe kavalerister. De håber at kunne overleve, til de kan nå frem til den nærmeste militære forpost. Under deres rejse bliver Honus mere og mere glad for Cresta, men han er ikke så glad for, at hun udviser større sympati over for indianerne end over for den amerikanske regering.
Panser-diligencen (1967)
Taw Jackson er fast besluttet på at snuppe en jernbeklædt diligence, som tilhører en kvægbaron, der for år tilbage stjal hans formue og plettede hans gode ry. Til at udføre røveriet samler Jackson en gruppe, der indbefatter en gammel mand, en halvciviliseret indianer, en ung drukkenbolt og en selvsikker revolvermand... Beskrivelse: [ Dansk Engelsk ]
The Professionals (1966)
Burt Lancaster and Lee Marvin headline this rip-roaring Western action/adventure. Four soldiers of fortune are hired by a wealthy Texan oil baron (Ralph Bellamy) to rescue his kidnapped wife (Claudia Cardinale), who's been spirited across the Mexican border by a band of mercenaries led by Jesus Raza (Jack Palance). The four rugged professionals, each regarded as a specialist in his selected field - an expert marksman and tracker (Woody Strode), the explosives master (Lancaster), horse handler (Robert Ryan) and one skilled in tactics and weaponry (Marvin) - make their way across the treacherous landscape to retrieve the beautiful kidnappee, but discover all is not what it seems in the explosive climax.
Cat Ballou (1965)
A Western spoof in which a prim girl (Jane Fonda) hires a once-famous gunman to protect her father from the gunman's evil twin brother (both played by Lee Marvin). Unfortunately the man she hires is now a drunken bum and no match for his tin-nosed twin. When her father is killed, she takes it upon herself to track down the murderer. With musical interludes from Nat King Cole and Stubby Kaye.
Ulzana's Raid (1972)
Violence begets violence in this explosive western that pits marauding Apaches against weary Indian fighters and native U.S. Cavalrymen. Burt Lancaster stars in this sharply written, fact-based story as a scout assigned to aid the cavalry in tracking down Ulzana and his band of renegade Indians. As the trail gets hotter, Lancaster attempts to teach an idealistic young lieutenant that the only way to fight the Apaches' escalating brutality and violence is with even stronger force. Robert Aldrich directs this gritty action epic sure to excite both sense and the intellect.
Soldier Blue (1970)
Violent anti-racist Western, based on events during the 1864 Sand Creek Massacre. A naive cavalry officer (Peter Strauss) and a resourceful young woman (Candice Bergen) survive a Native American attack and have to make their way home through the wilderness. As they face the hardships of the journey, the couple fall in love, only to witness a horrific bloodbath as the U. S. Cavalry takes revenge upon their enemy, in a battle that became notorious for its brutality.
The War Wagon (1967)
John Wayne and Kirk Douglas star in this action-packed Western. Rancher Taw Jackson (Wayne) seeks revenge upon cattle baron West Catlin, who had robbed him of his life savings and his reputation years before. When he discovers that his nemesis is hiding half a million dollars of gold bullion in an armoured stagecoach, Taw gathers together a motley crew to help him steal it. |
