Review of Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid (1973) by Stacy G — 22 May 2011
Excellent, more artful western from Peckinpah. Doesn't reach the greatness of the Wild Bunch, but that's okay. The cast is fantastic. Bob Dylan's soundtrack adds quite a bit. The film is violent, but each death is treated as meaningful.
The way death is treated in this film is very refreshing. A great film that speaks of the importance of life, death, and friendship.
