In Clint Eastwood's acclaimed Western, Little Bill Daggett (Gene Hackman), a sadistic, dictatorial sheriff, enforces gun control on a tiny frontier town, doling out his own brand...
more...of due process as he sees fit. When he denies justice to the prostitutes of the town brothel, one of whom has been slashed by a client, the women hire Bill Munny (Eastwood), a reformed gunslinger, to gain vengeance. However, Munny must contend with his new moral code in the face of revisiting the life he left behind. Eastwood's directorial masterpiece also stars Morgan Freeman and Richard Harris.

UNFORGIVEN stands as a towering achievement, and it scooped numerous Academy Awards including Best Director, Best Picture and Best Supporting Actor (Hackman). However, it is Eastwood's portrayal of William Munny that really impresses most, with the actor brilliantly conveying the world-weary character, and in doing so, manages to make a bold statement regarding his own place in the world.

Full review
This is a truley brilliant western showing the world a bit more in the manner of the way it is than the typical holywood film which is just pie in the sky. the characters seem like real people with real weaknesses striving for what they think is important. The film is a coarse griity one with few light moments and is not lightwieght viewing. the actors are all excellent but eastwood and hackman really shine out in their respective roles. Clint has excelled him self with the direction of this film and to put in such a quality performance in front of the camera as well is truly remarkable.
