#79. The Wild Bunch
Year: 1969
Director: Sam Peckinpah
Reflections: The Wild Bunch tells the tale of a band of wild western outlaws swept over by change. As technology and the times advance, Williams Holden and his gang of vandals want to pull one final job before they fade into the sunset. What begins as a well planned heist turns into a series of gory shootouts as the outlaws come to realize the old ways are dead. Audiences grow to pity with the bad guys in this tale as they represent the human condition through their resilience and inability to cope with change.
