Review of Junior Bonner (1972) by Jason C — 10 Dec 2012
Incredible film. Part contemporary western, part sports redemption film. One where the athlete's eventual success does not lead to accolades or money or even a happy retirement but instead to a continued life of isolation and physical pain.
McQueen is brilliant, his famously stoic coolness replaced by stoic suffering.
