We set out on the back country trails with three modern takes on the western genre.
Notes:
- Content Warning: two of these films feature sexual assault as plot points
- What is a Western? Did they die out?
- The Emergency
- The period Hindi Westerns: The Magnificent Two (Sholay)
- Revisionist Hollywood Westerns, Dark Westerns, Blaxploitation Westerns, the list goes on
- We miss Irrfan Khan and Sushant Singh Rajput
- Spoiler alert, none of these movies end very well for the main character
- Paan Singh Tomar
- We have watched many sports biopics, they usually don’t have this many gunfights though
(INTERVAL (”Baaghi Re” from Sonchiriya)
- Sonchiriya
- Alberta is the wild west
- Caste politics and feminism
- Thar
- Violence should have a point
- Catharsis and heroic bloodshed (see RRR)
- Spoiler Zone: 55:57 - 1:00:54
