Review of Tom Horn (1980) by Mikey M — 15 Jun 2011
By all accounts five different directors worked on this, four of whom were fired after disagreements with the contemptuous star. However it is beautifully photographed by John Alonzo and while it is initially episodic, it's a film that brought out the well researched and stoic best of McQueen as the aging western legend.
McQueen perfectly understood both his limitations as an actor and the definition of 'cool' and this should go down (even if it doesn't) as one of his most iconic roles.
