🔴 Condition - Very Good 🔴
Unforgiven follows much of the same style as the Italian-made Westerns, in that it features an utterly bleak, ugly look at colonial America which few American directors would dare to put on the screen, especially in today's political climate. David Webb Peoples' script revolves around a whorehouse in the town of Big Whiskey. One of the staff there has made the unfortunate mistake of laughing at a customer, who in turn has taken offence and slashed her face apart, which prompts the other women in said establishment to put a bounty on the man's head.
William Munny (Clint Eastwood) used to be a gunslinger, but he retired, got married, and started up a farm, which didn't go all that well since the story finds Munny with a shortage of funds and his wife dead from smallpox. Naturally, he needs money to feed himself and his two children, so when he hears from a young upstart calling himself the Schofield Kid (Jaimz Woolvett) of the bounty being offered, he takes his friend Ned Logan (Morgan Freeman) with him in an effort to collect. Together, the three of them travel across colonial America while Big Whiskey's sheriff, Little Bill Daggett (Gene Hackman) is doing everything in his power to discourage bounty hunters from coming to his town more out of social prejudice than any good reason. His measures requiring people to turn in all guns to the deputies whilst in town are merrily ignored to the detriment of a lot of gunslingers, including one English Bob (Richard Harris).
