Unforgiven (9/10) Movie CLIP - I'm Here to Kill You (1992) HD

CLIP DESCRIPTION:
William Munny (Clint Eastwood) takes his revenge on Little Bill (Gene Hackman) and the town of Big Whiskey.

FILM DESCRIPTION:
Dedicated to his mentors Sergio Leone and Don Siegel, Clint Eastwood's 1992 Oscar-winner examines the mythic violence of the Western, taking on the ghosts of his own star past. Disgusted by Sheriff "Little Bill" Daggett's decree that several ponies make up for a cowhand's slashing a whore's face, Big Whiskey prostitutes, led by fierce Strawberry Alice (Frances Fisher), take justice into their own hands and put a $1000 bounty on the lives of the perpetrators. Notorious outlaw-turned-hog farmer William Munny (Eastwood) is sought out by neophyte gunslinger the Schofield Kid (Jaimz Woolvett) to go with him to Big Whiskey and collect the bounty. While Munny insists, "I ain't like that no more," he needs the bounty money for his children, and the two men convince Munny's clean-living comrade Ned Logan (Morgan Freeman) to join them in righting a wrong done to a woman. Little Bill (Oscar-winner Gene Hackman), however, has no intention of letting any bounty hunters impinge on his iron-clad authority. When pompous gunman English Bob (Richard Harris) arrives in Big Whiskey with pulp biographer W.W. Beauchamp (Saul Rubinek) in tow, Little Bill beats Bob senseless and promises to tell Beauchamp the real story about violent frontier life and justice. But when Munny, the true unwritten legend, comes to town, everyone soon learns a harsh lesson about the price of vindictive bloodshed and the malleability of ideas like "justice." "I don't deserve this," pleads Little Bill. "Deserve's got nothin' to do with it," growls Munny, simultaneously summing up the insanity of western violence and the legacy of Eastwood's Man With No Name.

HIT US UP:

[WickedScott]

I love the shot of the writer's face when Munny delivers his line. He finally gets to witness a true legendary moment in the wild west he came to write about. He has his story, not tall tales.

[jessejames]

“He shoulda armed himself, if hes gunna decorate his bar with my friend”. Such a awesome line and delivered so perfectly by Eastwood!!

[heraldhermes]

The scene just prior to this, where he becomes William Munny after taking the whiskey bottle and drinking again is such an amazing turn for the character. He hardens to steel, he pushes the humanity out of himself one last time. It's somewhat understated in the film, but it's a powerful moment.

[TheMadAfrican]

I love how this shootout shows how dammed hard it is to hit something at close range when you're hopped up on adrenaline and scared for your life. The difference between a trained and untrained shooter.

[johnnyb]

The way Munny says "That's right" always gives me chills. He doesn't deny who he is or the things he's done. A stone cold killer to the core.

[JeffReams]

"Who's the fella that owns this shithole?"
That line always made me laugh.

[nealosias]

The Unforgiven got Clint the Oscar he deserves. This scene always gives me chills up my spine! Gene Hackman, Morgan Freeman… what a great cast… in my top 10 films of all time.

[alexgorgeous]

It's crazy that Eastwood, Hackman and Freeman were all 55-60 years old in this movie, which is 1992, and all three of them are still alive.

[ColonelSternlove]

One of the greatest endings to a film I’ve ever seen... the dialogue, lighting, characters, pacing... it’s all perfect. William Munny out of Missouri. You wait the whole movie for this moment. Masterpiece.

[FANCIAS]

I love how clunky the final shootout feels. Earlier in the movie Little Bill talks about how panicking is the worst thing you can do in a gunfight and we see every single person do just that while William calmly takes aim and shoots with precision. William also specifically throws his gun at Bill because he knows he is the biggest threat, and is able to thwart his superior draw speed by dropping to his knees before shooting.

It does an amazing job showing how comfortable William is in situations like this after years of being an outlaw, despite his old age. Probably the most realistic shootout in a Western.

[djwhitesox]

I always liked how little Bill never cowers away from William Munny. He actually walks toward him when he is directing his men to shoot him. It keeps both characters looking strong.

[ppplover]

It's a travesty that there's a whole generation who will never know Gene Hackman... one of the absolutely best actors ever. Every time he's on screen he commands your attention. Legend.

[teogo]

"It's a hell of a thing killing a man. You take away all he's got and all he's ever gonna have."William Muney

[wyattterrones]

"He should have armed himself, he's gonna decorate his saloon with my friend". I dont think people realize how savage this line is

[mazola]

I remember going to see this movie in the theater. When the movie was over, we just sat there...silent. We walked to the car, got in and I turned and said, "I think we may have just watched one of the greatest movies ever made." I still feel that way today.

[emptynight]

I love the draw in to Munny's face as he goes into his mini monologue about killing anything and everything. You feel fear. You believe him. And he sounds so accepting of his past now. He'll be that person again for his friend, if only for tonight. Great scene.

[TheDevilinThePaleMoonlight]

"That's right I've killed women and children, I've killed just about everything that walked or crawled at one point or another" William Munny one of the best lines in movie history

[Bad_At_Parties]

The scene is a great payoff to what's been building all movie. Multiple characters have lied about their great exploits of gunfighting and survival in order to appear strong and admirable in front of others, whereas Munny does have those skills and is trying to run away from his myth, not confirm it as he rightly could. Unlike the others, Munny knows the true cost of such a life and the pain behind the legend, which he forsakes the nobility or glory of as he becomes his own cautionary tale.

[danchamness]

If the way Clint Eastwood delivers his lines in this scene does not make you afraid, you are not human. He knows going in there that he is going to be outmanned and outgunned. Even given that, he was fearless. And that is a man to be feared.

[dayofthesnakes]

What I love about this scene is that it's literally a room full of men becoming terrified and intimidated immediately after being at the other end of a shotgun. And only moments before they were all so confident and brave - even Little Bill is taken aback by William Munney.
