"The Western Genre: From Lordsburg to Big Whiskey" offers close
readings of the definitive American film movement as represented by
such leading exponents as John Ford, Howard Hawks, and Sam
Peckinpah. In his consideration of such iconic motifs as the Outlaw
Hero and the Lone Rider, John Saunders traces the development of
perennial aspects of the genre, its continuity and, importantly,
its change. Representations of morality and masculinity are also
foregrounded in consideration of the genre's major stars John Wayne
and Clint Eastwood, and such films as "Shane," "Rio Bravo," "The
Wild Bunch, " and "Unforgiven."
