Unforgiven: 20th Anniversary Edition Blu-ray

02/06/2012

Nominated for nine Academy Awards and winning four, including best picture, this was a revisionist western brought to us by a man who knows just a thing or two about them. Dedicated to his former mentors Sergio Leone and Don Siegel, genre icon Clint Eastwood offers many allusions to classic westerns, including some of his own, before taking us on a journey that is at its heart a calculated and melancholic destruction of myth in the Old West.
