	Unforgiven (1992)
		Unforgiven's most understated, yet critical, performance comes from Anna Levine, as "cut-up whore" Delilah, who says almost nothing, yet offers her silent evaluation of the deadly drama that unfolds in the wake of her mutilation.
		Unforgiven is both deeply complicated and strikingly clear, brimming with dialogue that lays its themes open for examination.
		Unforgiven is often labeled a revisionist Western, and while this is true, its strength comes not from its spin on the specific genre, but from its dramatic impact.

	DVD Review - Unforgiven (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
		"Unforgiven" is uncompromising in that respect, offering the point that violence does not solve anything, and, indeed, only furthers pain.
		As a sidenote it is interesting that Eastwood picked up the rights to this movie in the late 70s and let it sit without touching it because he felt he was too young to play the part of William Munny and needed some maturing.
		"Unforgiven" comes in an anamorphic widescreen version with a pan&scan version on the flip side of the disc.

	The DVD Journal \| Reviews : Unforgiven: 10th Anniversary Edition
		Unforgiven has been criticized both for its moralizing and its grim violence, which should give one an idea of what a provocative and complicated story it tells.
		Munny is a man poisoned to the soul by his reckless dispatch of murder and mayhem during his younger days, and he's the first one to admit it.
		It's a vast understatement to claim that Unforgiven has the best cast of any western ever, with Eastwood and Hackman both at their mesmerizing best, the former making the most of his rueful face of death and the latter creating a truly intimidating and commanding mixture of genial good-ol'-boyisms and uncompromising authoritarianism.

	Unforgiven
		Unforgiven is framed between two almost identical shots of Claudia Munny’s grave, situated under a tree next to the home that she and William built together.
		Unforgiven then does not banish women but does not use them as padding either; rather it is the female characters in the film who initiate the action but only after ‘male’ justice treats them like a commodity which even to a ‘whore’ is unacceptable.
		Unforgiven banishes forever the ideal of John Ford’s Dallas as Eastwood pays much attention to detail right down to Strawberry Alice quickly wiping herself clean before going to the aid of her friend.

		Clint Eastwood's "Unforgiven" takes place at that moment when the old West was becoming new.
		He began as a young gunslinger on TV and in the early Sergio Leone films "A Fistful of Dollars" and "For a Few Dollars More," and he matured in "Coogan's Bluff" and "Two Mules for Sister Sara," under the guidance of Don Siegel, the director he often cited as his mentor.
		Thus "Unforgiven" internalizes the classic Western theme in which violent men are "civilized" by schoolmarms, preachers and judges.

		His name is Clint Eastwood, and his dual achievement in "Unforgiven," as both a director and an icon of American movie culture, is a film that can stand proudly in the rarefied company of the very best westerns ever made.
		In "Unforgiven," Eastwood resolutely refuses to pander to the West of our imagination; he finds his drama in the life and death struggles of cruel, often cowardly men who die ignominious deaths, or else are forced to live with the damning ramifications of unlivable actions.
		With "Unforgiven," his case is made; his achievement vouches for him.

	Unforgiven (1992): Reviews
		Unforgiven questions the rules of a macho genre, summing up and maybe atoning for the flinty violence that made Eastwood famous.
		Unforgiven is 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.
		If Unforgiven occasionally overstates its case, this is the best work Eastwood has done as a director since The Outlaw Josey Wales 16 years ago.

	"We all have it coming, Kid": Clint Eastwood
		Unforgiven (Clint Eastwood, 1992) marked a pivotal moment in Clint Eastwood's career both as an actor and a director.
		"Unforgiven is the harsh, brilliant culmination, indeed consummation, of themes, motifs, characterizations, and critical attitudes that have evolved in Clint Eastwood's Westerns for more than thirty years" (1).
		In an exchange around a campfire reminiscent of scenes in Unforgiven, Garnett answers that he had asked the presiding judge to sentence Haynes to four years on a prison farm, ostensibly justifying his actions on the basis that he was attempting to separate the boy from his violent father.

		To me, Unforgiven was rather shocking when I saw it but I now treasure the memory after it all having sunk in.
		However all this said, whilst Unforgiven is serious, emotive filmaking of the highest order it is impossible not to ignore the slightly heavy handed tone of the piece.
		Unforgiven is a great film and one you should certainly see, but be aware that it's slower heavier moments may not be for everyone.

	‘Unforgiven’ (R)
		"Unforgiven" exults in the hard-riding romanticism of classic Westerns, but it takes revisionist stock too.
		It dismounts at places usually left in the dust -- the oppressed lot of women, the loneliness of untended children, adult illiteracy and the horrible last moments of the dying.
		"Unforgiven" jumps adroitly between the macho and anti-macho, the romantic and anti-romantic.

	Unforgiven
		In Unforgiven, being killed is an ugly, painful humiliation, almost as much for the killer as it is for the victim.
		W.W. Beuchchamp (Saul Rubinek), a writer "of books," as he repeatedly tells those who ask, is as eager as the Kid to hear of the exploits of such merchants of death as Munny, as well as English Bob (Richard Harris), a cold-blooded killer whose romanticized biography Beuchchamp is writing.
		With Unforgiven, Clint Eastwood casts a cold objective eye on the realities of the West after the gunsmoke from decades worth of Hollywood westerns has cleared.

	FilmChat: Million Dollar Baby and Unforgiven -- good or bad, it doesn't matter (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
		Unforgiven uses a fair bit of Christ imagery, but it puts these allusions to the service of a nihilistic theme, rather than a theme of salvation.
		Bill Munny (Eastwood) is a former bounty hunter who left his life of killing behind when he married a decent woman; however, he's a widower now, and he needs money, so he takes a job killing two men who beat and cut a prostitute.
		Perhaps that's a bit of a stretch, but for me this stark duality is particularly clear in the way Frankie relates to the two women in his life.

	Unforgiven
		"Unforgiven" is the serious version of that anecdote.
		"Unforgiven" (1992) was the revisionist view, Eastwood's statement that his favorite genre was essentially a lie.
		Based on this description, this film is a B. It won't win you over if you can't stand gloomy ultra-violent films, but if you have an open mind, it's impressive.

	Acres U.S.A. -- The Biological Farmer
		Unforgiven is the definitive work on the subject, derived from Walters' research and in-depth interviews with Wilken, conducted shortly before his death in 1968.
		Wilken feared the concentration of power "in a few strong hands" as the deadliest enemy of a free society and saw the demise of independent enterprise and the family farm as the final curtain for the most dramatic social experiment in history: the American Dream.
		In Unforgiven, Walters presents not only the causes and effects of our continuing rural and urban decay, but also a way to stop it — the construction of an economy operating in tune with the laws of physics.

		So, many thought Clint Eastwood was drinking in the Last Chance Saloon when he announced plans to direct the revisionist tale of a burned-out gunfighter.
		But Hollywood forgave him when "Unforgiven" turned out to be a critical and commercial hit.
		The presentation is jarring, with a booming voice-over that spouts drivel like ""Unforgiven" was not an easy film to make".

	Unforgiven
		Unforgiven is dedicated to Don Siegel and Sergio Leone, Clint Eastwood's two cinematic mentors, who represent, respectively, the legacy of the classic Hollywood Western and the radical updating of the genre by Italian Westerns in the 1960s.
		Unforgiven is Eastwood's last Western to date, and the film may prove to be his swan song in a genre he has graced for more than forty years.
		Edward Buscombe explores the ways in which Unforgiven, sticking surprisingly close to the original script by David Webb Peoples, moves between the requirements of the traditional Western, with its generic conventions of revenge and male bravado, and more modern sensitivities.

		Unforgiven is dark, depressing, and full of failed figures.
		But of course, all of this chaos and these Western-myth revisions set-up the much deserved ending as Munny becomes the Clint Eastwood of High Plains Drifter (1972), doing another star turn with classic lines such as "Who’s the fella that owns this shithole," and actions that explode with sudden avenging violence.

		Unforgiven is clearly among the top westerns ever made.
		"Unforgiven" is really a spectacular film that deserved the Academy Awards for "Best Picture" and "Best Director." And it is a true masterpiece in my eyes.
		Eastwood has does such a good job of creating a menacing feel to the on-screen proceedings that after a while it is the only aspect of "Unforgiven" that one notices.

	Guy Movie of the Week, 9/27/99: Clint Eastwood's Unforgiven
		Any movie featuring as many shotgun deaths as Unforgiven was almost a lock to win, and win it did, taking home the Best Picture honors in 1992, as well as awards for director Clint Eastwood and supporting actor Gene Hackman.
		Well bear with me here--true enough, the theme of Unforgiven is that violence is, like, bad, but that doesn't mean the movie doesn't serve up plenty for entertainment purposes.
		Unforgiven does say violence isn't all glamour and glory, and that death is forever, but what the hell--Hackman and Eastwood beat the hell out of each other, a few dudes get shotgunned to death, and it has the Academy stamp of approval so you don't have to feel guilty about it.

		Their paths crossed again years later when Niehaus was undertaking orchestration duties for Jerry Fielding on scores for classic Eastwood flicks such as The Outlaw Josey Wales and The Enforcer, and continued to develop after Niehaus was hired to write the music for the cult 1985 western Pale Rider.
		Of all their collaborations to date, Unforgiven may very well be the best of the lot from a musical point of view.
		Niehaus squeezes everything he can out of Eastwood's theme and, with his own embellishments and original elements, has managed to put together an album which is intelligently structured in terms of musical development, and therefore a great listening experience.
