MONTE WALSH (1970)

Monte Walsh is what the West was all about.

Screen icons Lee Marvin (Prime Cut, Shout at the Devil), Jack Palance (Attack, The Lonely Man) and Jeanne Moreau (Diary of a Chambermaid, The Bride Wore Black) star in this gripping saga that covers the tumultuous final days of the Old West. Facing a changing landscape where barbed wire and railways replace the freedom of the open range, Monte Walsh (Marvin) and his fellow cowboys consider new work opportunities, toy with the idea of "settling down," and draw their pistols for one last showdown. Decades after its original theatrical debut, the unbridled spirit of the American frontier rides again. Legendary cinematographer William A. Fraker wonderfully directs this realistic western featuring a strong supporting cast that includes Mitchell Ryan, Jim Davis, G.D. Spradlin, Michael Conrad, Bo Hopkins, Matt Clark and Billy Green Bush.
