On this first part of our Clint Eastwood double feature, we're diving into Unforgiven, Eastwood’s 1992 Oscar-winning western that challenges the heroic myths of the genre. The film follows retired gunslinger William Munny who takes one last job for revenge and money—only to confront the personal and moral costs of violence. Unforgiven redefined the western genre in the early 90s and it's never been the same since. We check out how Unforgiven holds up over time, look at revisionist westerns, and ask just why is Eastwood such a badass.
Other topics include other favorite Clint Eastwood movies, the Man With No Name Trilogy, recent Halloween movies we're watching, and how to avoid election news at all costs.
