Acerca de esta película

The master of the American western, Sam Peckinpah, directs a stellar cast in this movie that breathed new life into the genre and broke ground in the realistic portrayal of screen violence. This explosive adventure drama is about the last of the legendary lawless breed who lived to kill -- and killed to live. Receiving two Academy Award nominations, this bitter, brutal story of magnificent losers in a dying West remains one of the screen's all-time classics. Starring Oscar-winner William Holden ("Network"), Oscar and Golden Globe-winner Ernest Borgnine ("Marty"), Oscar-nominee Robert Ryan ("Crossfire"), and Oscar and Golden Globe-winner Edmond O'Brien ("Seven Days in May"). Recently selected by the prestigious American Film Institute as one of the 100 greatest American Films of all time. Inducted into the Library of Congress National Film Registry.

The Wild Bunch was one of the truly great films of its time. It dissembled the myths of the American west, and it demonstrated that the violence that was being unleashed on Vietnam at the time was in the DNA of that myth. Critics at the time thought the violence was way over the top, and many dismissed it out of hand, but a few recognized that it realistically portrayed violence that was reaching its apogee in SE Asia. Director Peckinpah had significant blindspots and contradictions himself, but this was an amazing movie.

BRAVO ROTTEN TOMATOES 93%! A movie with so much Violence its an Anti-Violence movie - very controversial at it's time with Vietnam going Crazy; yet Director stayed true to his Vision, despite any film protests. TV was pressured to pull out all Violent content then!

One of the Great Classics . For any of you collectors out there, I have the Hat William Holden wore the whole movie. It’s authenticated by the Assistant Director. He is my best friend and he actually has the Hat. Anyone interested please call or text me at Seven one four, four seven five, eight two eight five.
