Edward Buscombe provides an illuminating guide to a hundred key films of the genre, from Broken Arrow to The Wild Bunch by way of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, A Fistful of Dollars, The Magnificent Seven and The Searchers. Each entry includes a plot synopsis, major credits, and a commentary on the film’s significance, together with its production and exhibition history. Edward Buscombe’s introduction to the volume discusses the criteria for selecting a mere hundred essential Westerns out of the thousands that have been made since the birth of cinema. He considers the relative weight to be attached to the acknowledged great directors of the genre, such as John Ford and Sam Peckinpah, and to lesser known but significant figures such as Delmer Daves. He takes stock of the contribution of the great Western stars, including John Wayne, James Stewart and Clint Eastwood. And he argues for a selection that takes into account Westerns of the silent era, B-Westerns and singing cowboys, and those Westerns made outside America. [Taken from back cover.]ISBN: 1844571122

USA ; STUDIOS, FILM. USA ; UNITED ARTISTS ; ALLEN, WOODY ; CIMINO, MICHAEL ; FIELD, DAVID ; DEER HUNTER, THE (US, Michael Cimino, 1978) ; HEAVEN'S GATE (US, Michael Cimino, 1980) Summary: "HEAVEN'S GATE is probably the most discussed, least seen film in modern movie history. Its notoriety is so great that it has become a generic term for disaster, for ego run rampant, for epic mismanagement, for wanton extravagance. It was also the watershed film of the decade - not for its cinematic qualities, but for its effect on Hollywood and the way movies will and will not be made in the future. For Michael Cimino's HEAVEN'S GATE did not merely fail (failure is forgivable, sometimes even endorsed in the strange labyrinths of the Hollywood psyche), HEAVEN'S GATE did the unthinkable: it sank a studio. Less than a month after the picture's second release, United Artists - the company founded by Douglas Fairbanks, Mary Pickford, D.W. Griffith and Charlie Chaplin - for all practical purposes ceased to exist. Why? How?" [TAKEN FROM BOOK JACKET]Notes: Includes indexISBN: 0688043828Donation: Simon Wincer
