Description

Wanted: Western Collection DVD Boxed Set (8 discs), includes 4 of the great western movies, in 2 disc special editions with bonus features!

The Wild Bunch (1969)
An aging group of outlaws look for one last big score as the “traditional” American West is disappearing around them.
Director: Sam Peckinpah, Stars: William Holden, Ernest Borgnine, Robert Ryan, Edmond O'Brien, Warren Oates
“It's a towering achievement that grows more riveting and resonant with the years.” Rolling Stone
“Arguably the strongest Hollywood movie of the 1960s – a western that galvanizes the clichés of its dying genre with a shocking jolt of delirious carnage.” Village Voice
“..an American masterpiece, one of the greatest films ever produced in the Hollywood system.” Chicago Tribune
“Peckinpah's most complex inquiry into the metamorphosis of man into myth. Not incidentally, it is also a raucous, violent, powerful feat of American film making.” TIME
“One of the great artistic achievements of the 20th century. And a bloody awesome western to boot!” Film4

Rio Bravo (1959)
A small-town sheriff in the American West enlists the help of a cripple, a drunk, and a young gunfighter in his efforts to hold in jail the brother of the local bad guy.
Director: Howard Hawks. Stars: John Wayne, Dean Martin, Ricky Nelson, Angie Dickinson, Walter Brennan, Ward Bond
“Flawlessly cast, complex, amusing and exciting, the film integrates multi-layered themes into a unified and satisfying whole.” Film4
“Warm, witty and endlessly welcoming, not only is it the filmmaker's finest Oater – better even than the sparkling Red River – it's arguably the quintessential Hawks flick.” Total Film
“Faultless, freewheeling-and very funny.” Empire Magazine
“Underrated at the time of its release, this majestically paced western is one of the finest achievements of the genre and stands as a career-best for many of its participants.” Radio Times

Unforgiven (1992)
Unforgiven is Clint Eastwood’s classic Western masterpiece which earned 4 Academy Awards including Best Picture. Clint Eastwood and Morgan Freeman play retired, down-on-their-luck outlaws who pick up their guns one last time to collect a bounty offered by the vengeful prostitutes of the remote Wyoming town of Big Whiskey. Best Picture Oscar Winner 1992.
Director: Clint Eastwood, Stars: Clint Eastwood, Gene Hackman, Morgan Freeman, Richard Harris, Jaimz Woolvett, Saul Rubinek, Frances Fisher.
“the actor/director's best movie – and the best Western by anybody – in over 20 years.” USA Today
“a tense, hard-edged, superbly dramatic yarn that is also an exceedingly intelligent meditation on the West, its myths and its heroes.” Variety
“one of the finest films ever made in the genre.” Radio Times
“the most provocative western of Eastwood's career, and with Gene Hackman, Morgan Freeman and Richard Harris along for the ride, it's also the most potently acted.” Rolling Stone

The Searchers (1956)
Ethan Edwards, returned from the Civil War to the Texas ranch of his brother, hopes to find a home with his family and to be near the woman he obviously but secretly loves. But a Comanche raid destroys these plans, and Ethan sets out, along with his 1/8 Indian nephew Martin, on a years-long journey to find the niece kidnapped by the Indians under Chief Scar. But as the quest goes on, Martin begins to realize that his uncle s hatred for the Indians is beginning to spill over onto his now-assimilated niece. Martin becomes uncertain whether Ethan plans to rescue Debbie…or kill her.
Director: John Ford, Stars: John Wayne, Jeffrey Hunter, Vera Miles, Ward Bond, Natalie Wood
“A mature, dark, ambivalent piece that helped pave the way for the modern western.” Film4
“An absolute must see.” EyeforFilm.co.uk 4.5/5
“so close to greatness you can almost smell it. It's easy to see why Martin Scorsese, George Lucas, and many others have championed it.” Combustible Celluloid
“John Wayne at his best, striking cinematography and character ambiguity makes this a powerful and thought-provoking Wild West Odyssey.” Empire Magazine
