Winner of four Academy Awards which were: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Supporting Actor and Best Editing, Clint Eastwood's masterpiece stands as one of the greatest and most thematically compelling Westerns ever made.
William 'Bill' Munny (Clint Eastwood) is a retired, but once notorious, gunslinger and murderer. He now leads a more sedate and laid back life on his farm which he runs with the help of his two children, Will (Shane Meier) and Penny (Aline Levasseur).
However times are very hard and the farm business isn't bringing in the kind of money Bill needs to survive and now his animals are falling ill.
On speaking to a kid he knows, called the "Schofield Kid" (Jaimz Woolvett), Bill decides, reluctantly, to take on one last job which will earn him a much needed $500, but he must kill two cowboys to get it!
To aid him in his final shoot down he calls upon his old partner, Ned Logan (Morgan Freeman) who accepts and joins Bill and the "Schofield Kid".
A short time later, the threesome enter the town they are searching for and discover that it is 'protected' by the evil Sheriff known as Little Bill Daggett (Gene Hackman).
