Triple bill of classic westerns. 'The Magnificent Seven' (1960)
stars Yul Brynner as Chris Adams, one of seven master gunmen who
help the defenceless farmers of an outlying village, pitted against
Calvera (Eli Wallach) and his army of bootlegging bandits in a tale
based on Akira Kurosawa's classic 'Seven Samurai'. In 'The Big
Country' (1958), when sea-captain Jim McKay (Gregory Peck) forgoes
a life on the ocean waves and travels west to claim his bride
Patricia Terrill (Carroll Baker), he finds more trouble than he
bargained for. The Terrill clan are embroiled in a bitter feud over
water rights with a rival family headed by Rufus Hannassey (Burl
Ives). Both clans want access to land which belongs to Julie
Maragon (Jean Simmons), and as their squabbling escalates, Jim and
Julie find themselves caught up in the middle, doing their best to
calm things down. In 'The Long Riders' (1980) Walter Hill follows
in the footsteps of directors Nicholas Ray and Philip Kaufman, and
presents his version of the story of the James-Younger gang. Hailed
as heroes by many, and much celebrated for their attacks upon the
railroad, the gang became the most famous band of outlaws in the
country. They were eventually brought to ruin by the Pinkerton
detective agency, losing many of their number in the ill-fated
Northfield, Minnesota bank raid. Hill's film tells the whole story
with explosive slow-motion violence, vivid period detail, and a
cast made up of celebrity brothers (the Carradines, Keaches, Quaids
and Guests).
