UNFORGIVEN (1992)

In a sleepy town of Big Whisky, cowboys make a living cutting up prostitutes, literally. Despite "hard-handed" Sheriff "Little Bill's" attempts to avenge the prostitute, her fellow friends place a bounty on the cowboys, which attracts the young gunning 'Schofield Kid' and his aging doppelganger William Munny.  The latter, a reformed cowboy living peacefully on a farm, raising his family the best he can as a farmer, a trade which he is no good at, Munny grows irritable and calls on Ned, his old partner.  Together the two ride off into the sunset for one last salacious adventure, leaving audiences to critique just where heroism leaves off and villainy begins.

The cast includes: Clint Eastwood, Gene Hackman, Richard Harris, Morgan Freeman, Saul Rubinek, and Francis Fisher.
