Review of Unforgiven (1992) by Anderson G — 18 Jul 2016

A real western, a farewell one of the most important genres of film history, the film is amazing and in my opinion is a seal, "Unforgiven" has a spectacular, brilliant script, you care about each character, you know everything about them, their dramas, their anxieties, their desires and their dreams, everything is very deep and well portrayed, and look at the film only has two hours, the performances are magnificent, few things are more rewarding in the cinema to see Clint Eastwood making your paper unnamed man (although in this film he has gained a name), and Gene Hackman is also magnificent, editing the movie is great, especially in the final scene, the outrageously good sound mixing, the beautiful photography, trail sound is good, but lacked that painted Ennio Morricone, If you like movies, watch "the unforgivable" if you like the western genre, buy the DVD and watch every week.

[Spoiler] [/ spoiler]: I rarely comment on the film giving spolier, but the final scene can actually be quite jarring climate of the film, perhaps Willian (Clint) have to have died, but kill the unnamed man is like killing Superman, Rocky or Batman. The character is an icon, almost a superhero, kill him, it would be like to kill Clint himself, so the director (Clint Eastwood himself) opts for a redemption, not a death.

[Spoiler] [/ spoiler] Another point to be discussed is a movie western to where no one pulls the gun and kills 20 people with the eye closed, but a killer who can not kill another killer who never killed and has problems vision and one that has visions of death and can barely get on the horse, and Sheriff claims to love the law and hate killers, beating people who believes to be criminal, are real cowboys, humans, this point of unforgivable is incredible.

[Spoiler] [/ spoiler] And the personal drama of the character played by Clint Eastwood is a counterpoint to his character's past, who killed, robbed, only saw the money, he tries to redeem the past and almost 30 years later, the man nameless goodbye.
