Amazon.com essential video
Winner of four Academy Awards, including best picture, director, supporting actor, and best editing, Clint Eastwood's 1992 masterpiece stands as one of the greatest and most thematically compelling Westerns ever made. "The movie summarized everything I feel about the Western," said Eastwood at the time of the film's release. "The moral is the concern with gunplay." To illustrate that theme, Eastwood stars as a retired, once-ruthless killer-turned-gentle-widower and hog farmer. He accepts one last bounty-hunter mission--to find the men who brutalized a prostitute--to help support his two motherless children. Joined by his former partner (Morgan Freeman) and a cocky greenhorn (Jaimz Woolvett), he takes on a corrupt sheriff (Oscar winner Gene Hackman) in a showdown that makes the viewer feel the full impact of violence and its corruption of the soul. Dedicated to Eastwood's mentors Sergio Leone and Don Siegel and featuring a colorful role for Richard Harris, it's arguably Eastwood's crowning directorial achievement. --Jeff Shannon

 Masterpiece of Age and Youth, Guilt and Redemption - February 22, 2010
Loyd E. Eskildson (Phoenix, AZ.)
Clint Eastwood directs and stars in Unforgiven. The 1992 movie is complex, it examines what is good and evil, the viewpoints of age and youth, finding courage, doing what is important while feeling guilt and yet finding redemption through change.
This is a Western set in Kansas and Big Whisky, Wyoming. The opening scene is in Kansas and shows William Munny, a retired gunslinger, chasing pigs with his two young children, a girl and a boy. Munny is also a widower and has to make do on his small farm. He has sworn off gun-slinging and wild women to honor the love of his life, his wife who died at age 29. She turned his life around and though poor, he felt good about making up for his past life of violence, drinking and wild women.
A young man on a horse comes up to Munny. He is the Shofield Kid (Jaimz Woolvett). He has a proposal to kill two cowboys that cut up a prostitute in Wyoming. There is reward money of $1,000 and they can split two ways. Munny initially refuses to help with the assassination, but realizes that it would help his children have a better future if he could afford to do something else.
After a few days he sets off with his best friend, Ned Logan (Morgan Freeman) also a retired gunfighter. Ned reluctantly leaves his Native American Wife, "Two Feathers" to go along on the hit. Two Feathers is near Munny's farm and agrees to check in on his children and help when they need her.
The trio get to the town of Big Whisky and find the Sheriff, Little Bill Daggett (Gene Hackman), enforcing gun control and using his power as he sees fit. He had denied justice to the prostitutes who now want revenge and have secretly gathered the $1,000 reward money.
Thereafter the story keeps developing with twists and turns. The mighty win over the weak. It is a haunting story of life's and moralities ambiguity.

Excellent Blu Ray Transfer February 11, 2010
Anne e Nonomous (Boston, MA United States)
The blu ray version of this disk is excellent, but be aware that there are a number of low light scenes in this movie that are best viewed on a plasma screen. I've seen this on an LCD, too, and the shadow detail was lacking. Perhaps a more recent LCD would perform better. Anyway, an excellent movie that has transferred well to blu ray.
looked it was a home copy February 10, 2010
Martha J. Williams
no issues with the disc. The movie image however was in fair quality almost as if it was a pirated copy.
