Summary: A DVD review
Review: Not many extras included in this one. Some short interesting notes on the making of the film and a trailer are included. The picture quality and sound were adequate. They didn't seem as bad a 'Widescreen Review' makes it sound. My second favorite Eastwood western next to 'Outlaw Josey Wales' and a must for any Western collection.

Summary: A Dynamic Western Story
Review: Clint Eastwood's second film as a director, "High Plains Drifter," has to be one of the most dynamic Western stories ever to hit the big screen. With a cold, eerie, and ambivalent tone, the movie unfolds like a ghost story from the camp fire.Here is essentially the story: Eastwood plays the ghost of a U.S. Marshall who was whipped to death by three outlaws hired by the developing western mining town of Lago. The residents of Lago had Marshall Duncan killed because he was going to report the town's illegal mining activity on Federal property to the government. Duncan's grave was left unmarked to hide the murder. The three outlaws are eventually turned into authorities by the residents of Lago. Now, with the outlaws about to be released from prison to wreak revenge on the town, Duncan's ghost rises from the desert to punish Lago and the three outlaws who killed him. "The Stranger," as the people of Lago call him, do not realize this is the resurrected Duncan, and ask him to protect their town from the outlaws after witnessing his flawless shootout with local ruffians. "The Stranger" paints the town red, and renames Lago, "Hell." This film is a must-see for anyone who loves Westerns or twisted plots. I am not a patron of Westerns, and yet I found this film remarkable for its great story and artistic quality. Eastwood demonstrated why he is a legend by directing an excellent and unique picture, and playing the dual role to perfection of the silent "good guy/bad guy."

Summary: Clint's best western
Review: If you could take only one Clint Eastwood western with you to a desert island, I would recommend this one. It is a stark, moody, violent and compelling morality tale with outstanding production, fine direction, and uniformly excellent performances from a skilled cast. Clint adroitly melded techniques learned from Sergio Leone with his own unique vision to craft a true classic. Highly recommended.

Summary: The "Man with No Name" returns
Review: This movie is one of the best Eastwood Westerns that I have seen and is right up there with "Pale Rider" is supernatural quality. Clint plays almost an avenging spirit who returns to seek justice for a past crime and does so with his usual coolness. The movie offers a red painted town named "Hell", flashbacks showing a crime committed against Clint in the past and some awesome action scenes. Eastwood is wonderful throughout the whole film and even sports a pistol with a Cobra painted on the handle (cool! ). This is a great Western to add to any collection.

Summary: They'll never forget the day this Stranger came to down.
Review: Clint stars and directs in this sinister story about a mysreious stranger who rides into a frontier town and is hired to protect the town from three men who are getting released from jail, but the town's folk soon realise that they need protection from the stranger who seems to have a grudge against the town. Strong performances from all involved especially Clint.

His one line comments are classic & this film has quite a few.I am not fond of clints other movies,but his westerns are SECOND TO NONE.

Summary: This movie has become part of our collective subconscious
Review: This movie, arguably one of the finest ever produced, is not only a re-examination of the Western genre but also a damning indictment of modern society. Eastwood uses the familiar charcaters of the Western to tell a deeper tale. He exposes the hypocrisy inherent in our society by showing the cowardice of the townspeople who are to afraid to act directly against the villains. The Stranger forces the townspeople to wallow in their own degradation by forcing them to accept his increasingly harsh dictates in return for protection. Ultimately, the town(society) collapses because it is unable to accept responsibility for its future. As the Stranger rides out of town, the midget asks him his name. When the Stranger replies that his name is already known, he is telling us that willfully turning our eyes from the realities of our world is no defense from their consequences.
