Product Description

Amazon.com essential video
One of the best action movies ever made, in a cleaned-up print restoring crucial parts of the story. No cavalry ever rode in with more epochal impact than the Wild Bunch in the legendary opening scene. Their steel-eyed leader, Pike (William Holden), and his robbers in stolen army uniforms help an old lady across the street, and then spark a massacre led by Pike's old crony Thornton (Robert Ryan), sprung from jail to hunt down his old gang. In just a few minutes, Sam Peckinpah sets the scene--a dusty Texas town in 1913--sketches a dozen vividly individualized characters, and choreographs one of the most realistic, influential, brilliantly photographed shootouts under the pitiless sun. The cast is superb (even Ernest Borgnine!), the dialog crackling, the bitterly ambiguous moral of the story hard-earned. It's the deeper, dark flip side to 1969's Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. Consider buying the letterbox Wild Bunch, the review collection Doing It Right, and the Peckinpah bio "If They Move... Kill 'Em!" --Tim Appelo

 Wild Bunch is a masterpiece March 7, 2010
Timothy G. Carlson (Louisville, CO United States)
Sam Peckinpah's Wild Bunch 1969 is a modern masterpiece
that should be seen with Clint Eastwood's Unforgiven 1992 as
two sides of the coin of explorations of violence and the
code of loyalty in the West.

Dutch's very pronunced homosexual feelings for Pike February 14, 2010

1 out of 1 found this review helpful
In reading most of the reviews for this movie. I am struck by the absence of any mention of Ernest Borgnine's character Dutch's very strong homosexual feelings for Pike(W.Holden). Peckinpah is very clear in this portrayal. From Dutch not going into the brothel just before the "walk" till Dutch's final words "Pike". I'm straight so this isn't a commentary about homosexuality it is just a commentary about homosexuality not being mentioned in the Amazon reviews.
ALso, this is one of my favorite movie's. It is a very complex movie.

This DVD was ordered for my son. He absolutely loves the DVD. He has never been sorry for any DVD I have ordered from you. He has always been delighted and I am sure there will be others than he wants me to order. So until the next order.......
