- Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid (1973)
"Ain't that many of us left," mourns a dying outlaw to his killer. This admission sums up the state of the Old West in Sam Peckinpah's bloody elegy Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid. Impending modernization spurs Sheriff Pat Garrett (James Coburn) into selling his soul to progress, while his swaggering doppelganger Billy the Kid (Kris Kristofferson) stands opposite him as the frontier's last bastion of individuality. Peckinpah soberly depicts the former friends' showdown, enriching his film with balletic, slow-motion shootouts and Bob Dylan's solemn soundtrack.
