The Wild Bunch / USA / 1969
I return to this film every so often mostly because I’m intrigued by the Vietnam War sub-text that seems to pop up in Peckinpah films. However, in regards to what exactly makes the film exceptional, I’ll defer to Michael Mann’s comments:
“No other picture captures the poignancy of ‘the last of’, a fin-de-siË£¨e sense of the West, of ageing, of the pathos of twilight.”
