My favorite line in the movie

"It's a hell of a thing, killing a man... Take away all he's got, and all he's ever gonna have." Clint Eastwood's character, William Munny, is supposed to be an older "Blondie" (the character Eastwood portrayed as a younger man was never really given a proper name) from the famous 1960's Sergio Leone Dollars Trilogy spaghetti westerns. Eastwood dedicates this film to director Sergio Leone as well.

@@mrbuttons1243 If you look at the timeline of the Dollars Trilogy and Clint's man with no name character, it lines up with the timeline of Munny in Unforgiven. David Peoples, the screenplay writer (also involved with 12 Monkeys and Blade Runner), has also said he was partially inspired by the stylish Leone directed spaghetti-western trilogy when he wrote the script in the 70's. When Clint attached himself to the screenplay rights from Francis Ford Coppola, the script was modified to add more of that influence because Clint wanted an ode to the role that made him famous. The wrap up for those classic westerns.

In his fever dreams Will sees the Angel of Death, but then at the end of the film, he BECOMES the Angel of Death.

Surprisingly, a number of people I've seen react to this don't seem to get that there isn't supposed to be true villain or hero in this. Nor do they realize that Little Bill is actually trying to maintain some level of law and order in his town; they just seem to see him as a ruthless, corrupt sheriff. So its nice to see someone react to this that gets that aspect of the film. I think that choice makes this a much more dynamic story than we typically get from hollywood.

The fact that every character is some shade of gray makes the story so much more real. There's not really a pure "good guy" or pure "bad guy", which makes it complex emotionally to watch, since there's reasons to root for AND against most of the main characters. We (humans) always like to simplify the narrative into us vs them. It helps us know how to act toward others by classifying them into friend or foe, but the reality is rarely that simple. People have complex motivations and perspectives that make it hard to put them so neatly into one bucket or another.This film really captures that complexity, and shows how "we've all got it coming".

Death Rides a Pale Horse. William Money was Death.

Displaying the bullet riddled bodies of dead outlaws was routine in western towns. See the pictures of the Dalton gang after they tried to rob a bank in Coffeyville, Kansas. There was more "Order" than "Law"... The Western is a huge genre...most of it nonsense about a West that never was. Eastwood has quite a few. My favorite is "The Outlaw Josey Wales". John Wayne was an icon, but a lot of his movies are formulaic and he's just "John Wayne", but "Angel and the Badman", "The Searchers"(widely held to be his best), "Rio Bravo" and "The Shootist" his very last movie before he died offer a range of his best over his career. Randolph Scott is another classic actor. Check out his collaborations with director Budd Boetticher for some of the most highly respected westerns of the 40s and 50s. For modern westerns, "The Long Riders", about the James-Younger gang, "Ride with The Devil" by Ang Lee about the guerilla war in Missouri during the Civil War, and "Tombstone" about Wyatt Earp and the gunfight at the OK corral.

William Munny is not a man anybody would want to come across. That is a truly bad man. And he's incapable of being glorified by writers like Beauchamp because they could never get close to a guy like Munny without endangering their own lives. I know the actor playing the Schofield Kid gets some heat for his acting, but I thought his last scene under that tree dealing with the heavy burden of taking a man's life contained some terrific moments. I also think the woman delivering the money was excellent. Her voice quivering with fear when she says, "The same William Munny that dynamited the Rock Island and Pacific in '69, killin' women and children..."

Hi Jade! Thanks for reacting to this. To me, this is a Western masterpiece. And it’s actually an anti-western in the cinematic sense. Eastwood wanted to show the reality of the West: dirt, grime, and violence instead of the glorified view more commonly displayed by Hollywood.

True Grit (2010) one of the best Westerns ever made

Having no music in the film was a really bold choice, but such a great choice. Then to bring in the music at the end really gives it such an emotional impact.

This has been a favorite of mine since childhood. I'll never forget the emotions i felt when the Schofield kid shot a man down. I had seen dozens of movies where people died, hell at that point my favorite film was the hills have eyes. But the way the writing, acting and directing came together for that one scene, it really made me feel the weight of his regret. It made me understand that when someone is gone, thats it. You don't only lose a life, but all the memories that person made, all the relationships they built, the things they've done and all they ever planned to do. Every good idea or creative thought, gone within seconds. And as cool as the kid thought it all was, he learned instantaneously that he was never meant to be that kind of man. Keep up the good work.

"Fast is fine but accuracy is final. You must learn to be slow in a hurry" Wyatt Earp

16:34 Yes, learning to drive horses is much different to learning to ride one. Especially with a team of horses.

I hate to tell you this, but going back more than a hundred years, it sucked to be a human being. Most people don't have any idea how difficult and brutal life was before about 1900.

This was the first film where Clint took it to the next level!

16:35 - There's not a lot of difference between horseback and driving a wagon. For steering on horseback, typically horses and mules are what we call "neck reigning". Which is where you can hold the reigns in one hand and hover it to the left of their neck to go left, and hover it to the right of their neck to go right. For steering on wagons, they're steered by what we call "plow reigning". It's where you hold onto the reigns with both hands, and if you want to go left, you pull back on the left reign. If you want to go right, you pull back on the right reign. But some horses and mules that you ride horseback might not be trained for neck reigning, so you have to plow reign them like you would on a wagon. I used to ride mules a lot as a teenager, because my dad and I used to travel to Colorado every year to hunt elk in the mountains. So I've had to use both methods depending on the mule.

That's kind of funny when that little girl asks, "Did Pa used to kill folks", not because she is expressing dismay. She is expressing disbelief.

When we turn our eyes toward the door to see who it is, standing tall and with no fear, it sends a chill down your spine. Little Bill the sheriff thinks that his words that Will Munny will die don't work like they did at the jail against the writer. William Munny )in this film) was not a man afraid of death once he started drinking. And when he says, "Bury Ned right or I'll come back and kill every one of you sons of bitches." I would believe him. Actually I think I would move out of that town, just in case. William Munny doesn't seem like a man who goes back on his word. -- Lil Bill the sheriff called Munny a coward? He walked run in front of a dozen armed deputies without flinching, and killed a man in front of them, knowing he only had 2 cartridges in the gun. That is the opposite of cowardly.

I've seen pictures recent rare sightings of Gene Hackman (the villain) at random gas stations. Sadly, he's unrecognizable now. He's so old and frail, but it's understandable considering that he's in his 90's. I had no idea that he was that old.. He and Clint Eastwood are pretty much the last of that great generation of early Hollywood actors. To think of all the stories they could tell, and to think of all the people they've met. I wish someone would just record endless podcasts with people who lived in those times, so those memories won't pass with them.

My great-grandfather worked for the Southern Pacific Railroad during that time. He got his arm crushed in a buckler and they cut it off. I have tin types photos with him with one arm.

This great Western won the 1993 Oscar for Best Movie.

Supposedly Clint Eastwood sat on this movie script for many years until he was old enough to play this role.

19:15 It's a subtle thing, but Little Bill ejects five rounds from a revolver with six chambers. He _would_ have killed English Bob...because the chamber the hammer would have fallen on was empty. And it's Little Bill's gun, which he loaded himself and kept in his desk, perhaps for exactly this purpose-when it would be convenient for a prisoner to be "shot trying to escape".

Ps… you would really enjoy Clint’s Spaghetti Western trilogy! It’s incredible!

Not sure what your experiences with western movies and US history are, but your ideas throughout this movie were pretty good. The legacy and folklore of the US west glorify and celebrate the wild cowboys, gun fights, and killings in those days. The reality of it is somewhat different. This movie was meant to bring light to the brutality and viciousness of those same stories. If you note, there are four true killers in this movie... Will, Ned, Little Bill, and English Bob. Little Bill and English Bob were tough, but you see in their portrayal, they were very braggadocious and prideful. The other two were actual cold blooded killers (Will and Ned). Mr. Beauchamp was searching for stories to validate all the things he had heard about the wild west, and the kid grew up hearing wild stories from his uncle that used to ride with Will and Ned. Those two represent us within the movie... people who have heard glorified stories without the horrific realities. As the movie progresses, they learn the harsh truth of reality. You notice how Bill and Bob use the writer to try to expand their own glory, while Will only sent him on his way with "I can only tell you who's going to be last". Likewise, Ned had plenty of opportunities to brag to the kid, but declined. It is all reminiscent of the old saying "barking dogs never bite, but beware the quiet ones". The final scene is very important. Will spent the entire movie trying to convince everyone (including us) that he was a changed man. He wasn't the same... he was forgiven for his past life. The climatic point comes when he has Bill trapped on the floor, and he says "I'll see you in He'll, William Mooney". In that moment of a pause after, he concedes with a "yeah"... Will realizes he is "Unforgiven".

Richard Harris.. LEGENDARY. great Irish actor.

Contrary to popular folklore, gun slingers were few and far between. 2 Reasons for this is that farmers owned the same guns and were more skilled at using them. The other reason was you can't hide with a bounty on your back!

Will had mercy. "All the men better clear out the back" Giving people a chance, so in in a way he did change. Also he "will" never forgive himself, "Unforgiven" he is who he is a killer. And the irony is his name is "Will" ...will not for give himself, last "will" and testament for the deceased. What also Little Bill (Gene Hackman) forgot he has no "will" to live. Fear isnt with him. Also the horse he could not get up on.. He gets up on it easily when he became the angel of death again.

This is one of my 3 favorite westerns. The other two are The Good, The Bad and The Ugly (also starring Clint). This would be the classic western and is the 3rd film in the man with no name trilogy. The other is Tombstone with Kurt Russel and Val Kilmer (based on the historical shootout at the OK Corral in Tombstone Arizona). Would highly recommend if your looking for more westerns.

Nice reaction to this classic Western. I think that "UNFORGIVEN", "TOMBSTONE", and "OPEN RANGE" are the Top 3 Westerns ever made, but there are plenty of other worthy contenders for the title.

Horses were very valuable in the West, remember there were no automobiles then.

I don't think so. The horse simply didn't like him; he used to beat it, as he says early in the film. It hadn't been ridden in years either. Each time he rides it, the horse makes it a little easier, and you can see that when he mounts after the kid kills the second cowboy. As for his true nature, he was both terrible and honourable, even when younger. This can be deduced from the fact that Claudia saw the good in him and married him, Ned stayed friends with him, trusted him, and was happy to see him. "Uncle Pete" the kid's uncle knew how to find Will, used to ride with him, and yet suggested him as a safe and reliable bounty hunting partner for his inexperienced nephew. Will wasn't as disliked and feared in youth as he thought he was, but his legend grew. If anything, the horse's behaviour indicates a truth: that Will really was a changed man, and the horse comes to learn that.

Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (a great comedy western)with great chemistry between Robert Redford and Paul Newman, and a great script from William Goldman (The Princess Bride and Misery . Shane (1953) seen through the eyes of a 10-year-old boy, a gunfighter tries to leave his old life and gets sucked in to a war between a big rancher and small farmers.

I think It means a lot to a lot of people even if they don't realize it and I have nothing but respect and admiration Mr. Eastwood.

Back in the old west, pistols with gun safeties were expensive. As cowboys with pistols that did not safeties would keep the first chambers unloaded as they would be riding horses which may cause a sudden jerk or jump.

There were no pistols in that era with safeties. Not just expensive, but not even invented.

@@MovieJoob stoppp, you're so sweet that I hate when you watch movies that are harsh, lol. I went back and I'm watching your reaction to Braveheart. I love that movie, but hate it. It doesn't matter what you want or hope for, it ends poorly. Such is life.

What people often overlook is the fact that one of the cowboys was innocent; he didn't take part in hurting that young woman. so in his case it wasnt "justice" he was simply murdered. Also, man life is not an easy ride, it's not that we are given everything on a silver plate. i believe june is a month dedicated to rising awareness when it comes to men mental issues. but seems judging by attention around this topic no one's care. even statistics regaldelss to men suicides teels much.

There are no "good guys" in this movie. Everyone is guilty of something at some point...even the women for putting out a bounty on the 2 cowboys. They deserved justice but not to be killed for cutting her up. The film is a masterpiece and my fav from Eastwood.

Your question around 11:40. Yes, President Garfield was shot July 2, 1881. Through the telegraph, the major towns even in the West would've known about it right away. He died of his wounds the following September. Little Bill is beating up English Bob for mouthing off about the Presidency and exalting the Queen on Independence Day (July 4). Starting with the 1840 election, seven Presidents in a row who were first elected to office in a "Zero Year" died while in office. Three died of natural causes, four were assassinated. The last was JFK (1960). Ronald Reagan (1980) and George Bush (2000) survived assassination attempts.

I think that they are intending to test that pain theory. Having trouble finding volunteers.

This is so good. One of the best Westerns there are. Clint and Gene are great opponents. That is why I like their second film together: Absolute Power (1997) as well.

One of the greatest westerns "Once Upon a Time in the West" has been done by practically nobody. You could be more or less first. ❤️

"Driving" a horse carriage is not all that difficult. They put a piece of metal In the horse's mouth called a snaffle I believe that has a ring at each end. The horse is wearing a harness that's attached to the carriage. Then they attach the reins to those rings and basically you control the horse by pulling either side of the reins ( basically the horse's head ) to that direction. Pulling both will make the horse stop and start backing up. It's very important to use the right mouthpiece to make sure not to hurt the animal. Riding a horse is a much more personal affair. The rider must learn how to ride them it's not only just hopping on and go. They always have to be in perfect sync with the movement of the horse Depending on speed ( walk, trot, canter ) not always the same amount of legs touching the ground so you need to learn the different rhythm of moving on the back of the animal. When riding fast you not really sitting on the horse but standing on the stirups, a piece hanging on each sides of the saddle to put your feet in. Controlling the horse is done pretty much the same way but with much shorter reins. It is very important to learn the rhythm of horseriding otherwise its a very painful affair ( for the rider ), it can very easily rough up the inner thighs ( and other important parts lol ) and can result in falling from the horse. I absolutely adore these animals they are majestic and beautiful with extremely different personalities.

That’s as beautifully broken down thank you so much for explaining it!! I’ve experienced horse riding before (only two times but I found it came extremely naturally to me and somewhat easy) but I feel like I’d find steering a horse drawn carriage to be harder surprisingly than horseback riding! I’m probably in the minority there though!!

@@MovieJoob Thats really great I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it. One of my cousins are breeding horses so I get to be around horses as much as I want and I really grateful for that. They are beautiful animals but they do build very strong bonds with humans much like a dog does and they show real emotions which is really touching. Many people are afraid of them but it all comes down to good parenting haha, if they were raised in a safe environment and their owners cared for them they are just fine. You show due respect when you approach them and make sure they see you and there is nothing to be afraid of. I honestly prefer animals over most humans lol :)

From English Bob on, this story is placed between July 2 and September 19, 1881. President Garfield was shot on July 2nd and died on September 19th. But it wasn't filmed in that season as evidenced by the snow.

A freak snowfall can certainly happen by September 19th. In the nearby mountains, it can happen any day of the year, really.

@@OgreProgrammer The day that English Bob arrived was July 4. Don't know the date of events that followed. I suppose it could have been months, and beyond September 19th.

The only complaint I have about this movie is the dates of the presidential assassinations. According to the movie, the date is 1880. Little Bill even suggests it's independence day (July 4th.) When in reality, Garfield was assassinated in 1881, a year later. In fact, he was assassinated on September 10. That's 14 months after the suggested timeline in the film. However, the snow up in the high country suggests it may be September, at least.

Delilah was cut during winter of 1880, the start of the film. Foals, baby horses, are born in late winter/early spring. Young horses stop nursing at about 6 months. The cowboys are to bring in ponies after the thaw. Her scars are sealed but still red, months later when English Bob arrives in town on July 4th, 1881, two days after Garfield was shot, and when the shooting was front page in the papers. He's released days or weeks later; he's still scabby and healing from his beating. Will, Ned, and The Kid show up after he leaves town.

Ah, Garfield was shot July 2.... I had learned he was assassinated in September. The 10, I thought. Turns out he died on the 19. Figured it was an all in one kinda deal. Shot and dead all at once. You are correct. That certainly helps the timeline.

Completely cliche to say this to you, but Quigley Down Under is a fun and great western. Not as realistic as Unforgiven, but a lot of westerns are not that realistic overall. Tom Selleck is a great western actor in part because of his work in The Sacketts.

Jade, watch the movie "Quigley Down Under". It's a western based in Austrailia.

Jade, I think you would enjoy the movie "A Man Called Horse" with Richard Harris who played English Bob in this movie. It's set in the old west and includes Native American tribes and shows their culture.. Another excellent one is "Last of the Dogmen"

1st; if you can't afford "Patreon", I get it and we get to enjoy Jade's company and editing via KZread. I've heard some watch reactions without subscribing however, and that does not seem fair. This channel is close to a very important threshold of 100k subscribers and that number can greatly help the content creator. Just putting it out there...hitting the subscribe button is very little effort considering the MANY hours this channel takes to produce. (Love the reaction...thank you.)

Things do hurt more in the cold. I don't know why. I used to be in the armed drill team in high school. It's an optional military-themed program for high schoolers. You're not actually affiliated with the military, but you learn a lot about it. The armed drill team is a competition marching team that does coordinated stunts with rifles. The rifles have been modified so they'll never shoot again. Anyway, while you're doing some of these stunts, you'll sometimes flip the rifle in such a way that it lands hard in your hand. Catch it the wrong way, and it can hurt. It always hurt more in the winter than in the summer.

This is so so interesting!! It makes sense because in the cold even the wind and your skin hurts, papercuts hurt more and it feels like wounds take longer to heal as there is less moisture in your skin! (Such small examples/experiences that I've had compared to you but just how I relate haha)

Everything effects gun shot. I can tell you that without stopping the leak, without proper condition, without minimum medical supply and especially without water, you may die. Feeling about being shot? You don't feel much
