Editorial Review:

Amazon.com essential video:
During the Civil War, Union 'Redlegs' attack Southerner Josey Wales's dirt farm and wipe out his family. Seeking vengeance, Wales throws in with a company of Reb guerrillas. Tagged as a renegade after the surrender, he flees west into the vastness of the Indian Territories, where, quite unintentionally, he finds himself cast as the straight-shooting paterfamilias of an ever-growing, spectacularly motley community of misfits and castaways. Which is to say, Josey's personal quest for survival and something like peace of mind evolves into a funky, multicultural allegory of the healing of America.

The Outlaw Josey Wales (1976), Clint Eastwood's 31st film as an actor, 20th as international star, and 5th as director, was the first to win him widespread respect. Critics had grumbled when the producer-star replaced Philip Kaufman (The Right Stuff) in the director's chair a week into shooting. They ended up cheering when Eastwood delivered both his most sympathetic performance to date and--with the heroic collaboration of cinematographer Bruce Surtees--an impressive Panavision epic that stresses the scruffiness, rather than the scenic splendors, of frontier life.

Though it's been honored with a place in the National Film Registry, Josey Wales is good, not great, Eastwood. The big-gun fetishism can get tiresome, and too many characters exist only to serve as six-gun (and at one point Gatling gun) fodder. But mostly the film is agreeably eccentric, and almost furtively sweet in spirit--a key transitional title in the Eastwood filmography, and one of his most entertaining. --Richard T. Jameson

- Classic Clint Eastwood!
This classic Clint Eastwood western is the best of the genre. Requested by my adult son, the flick turned out to be a great gift.

Rating:

- A great western
From prolific actor / director Clint Eastwood, The Outlaw Josey Wales is one of the best westerns of the 70's. Utilizing his usual group of actors during this period, Director Eastwood manages to bring to life one of the most realistic westerns ever put on the screen.

I also should point out the great performance from actor John Verron, (Dean Wormer from Animal House) is one of the best performances of his career.

Rating:

- great for clint fans
My husband is a fervent fan of Clint and old Westerns. This is a must have for him. If you just like movies, it is still at least a 4 star so you can enjoy it with your fervant fan.
