The theme of the movie in some ways inhibited the movie's own success, in that the theme is actually so sophisticated that a large chunk of the audience actually never figures out what the heck the movie is about !! The movie is not about how bad Clint Eastwood's evil ghost character is, it is about all the bad traits of the various townspeople, all the bad things they do, all their bad moral failings, and now here comes Clint's character into town to take them all to task (to hell) for behaving so badly and for being so bad !! And just who are these bad townspeople? Yup, that's right, they are you and all the audience, for we all have many of these same moral weaknesses as the townspeople, you, you bad apples !!! Ha, ha, ha !!!
@@mobydick3895 The explanation of how you interpreted the movie is one of the exact reasons why I love this movie so damn much. Everyone has different theories about what is exactly going on in the isolated barren town of Lago, and I heard so many of them already which I love very much. I also love the music in the movie too.
It's very unique being a supernatural western.. One of my favorite movies too and one of my favorite westerns overall.. My favorite westerns are first the four Sergio Leone westerns. Unforgiven, high Plaines drifter. Pale rider, the new 3:10 to Yuma. Young guns 1 and 2. Tombstone. There are some more but I don't like the westerns with John Wayne except the searchers
This is absolutely by far my favorite Eastwood film. With its creepy atmosphere, and eerie soundtrack it’s more a creepy ghost story as told through a western. Eastwood is brilliant as the mysterious stranger with no name who rides into town and quietly wreaks havoc. Many years later were still left wondering who was he really as he rides off into a hazy mirage from whenst he came???
The initial script of this story reflected that Clint was the brother of the former Marshal Jim Duncan, who the townspeople had whipped to death. Clint was enacting his revenge on the townspeople for what they did to his brother. But in the movie, Clint left the background story vague and decided to give his presence a supernatural feel.
Just caught this review, well done. I will say you did miss one detail about the Marshall's killing. The Marshall knew that the mine was on govt. land and threatened to inform the proper authorities about it. The townsfolk were worried that the mine would be closed and ruin their prosperity. That was their sin, not just watching the Marshall's death, but having a hand in it for greed.
When this movie premiered on US television, Universal ordered a final scene to be filmed to negate the supernatural elements. From my memory: the scene is shot in a Marshal’s office where a lawman is thanking a Eastwood lookalike for solving the Sheriff’s disappearance. It is implied that Eastwood is an investigator and this was only one of his cases.
Painting the town red was an artist's touch. Oh, and Clint's outfit in this movie (the long coat, the hat, the scarf -- everything) is my absolutely most favorite of all westerns. (Here and in Pale Rider, but here primarily.) Forget the poncho and dust coat from Leone's movies -- this is THE definitive costume of the western's Alpha Male.
very nice to hear a mention of "play misty for me" one of the scariest films ever made, and it never gets mentioned in that genre, or really ever for that matter.
As for the town getting the red paint, there's also a great shot with the red town, the light white sand, and the blue water. Perhaps a bit more going on there than it seems.
34:43 At this moment, you can also see that the drifter is a spirit. Callie nails him. No way she could have missed. Yet, the drifter is unscathed. If she missed, the tub is shot open and the water drains out.
Great review. This film and Pale Rider are always great to watch as double feature, and i really think that both films are Eastwood's masterpieces, in fact i'd put them right with Unforgiven as some of the best westerns.
Every time one of your reviews pops up I drop what I'm doing. I remember seeing this late on channel 4 one night when I was in secondary school. It always struck me as having this over bearing supernatural vibe. I love how you do these reviews, its like being down the pub chatting with your mates. Bloody good stuff chaps.
Whatever the original intention does not matter by the time we flash into the ending Fading Into the distance as a ghost, it's essentially set in stone what most people are going to think. Congratulations, you made a wild west ghost story. Zooming into the tombstone doesn't imply a brother.
The barber from this movie is the Ferryman from Josey Wales. Eastwood reuses all his players alot. This is a weird movie and I liked it more when I was younger than I do now....but still I appreciate you guys doing these reviews.
HE was a total phantom...come back to avenge all....I've seen this movie several times and this is the first time that i looked at it that way. I was trying to rationalize how he escaped the grave and why the townsfolk did not recognize him if he was the marshal. The probably thought he was who he was but since they all seen him die and watched him be buried, there is no way he was who they thought he was..
I think its about time u dudes review Unforgiven now. The best western i ever saw and still one of my favorite movies. I am also still waiting on Finchers Zodiac review. :) Have fun!
Forty minutes, and thirty nine seconds? A small town commited a horrible crime, and they are all living in a kind of limbo. The town is hardly real, It has just what building you would have if you were dead, and serving your time. A man, the drifter, rides into town, and everyone treats him badly, he inturn treats the very badly. The town is in trouble, they sent very bad men to prison, and they were just released from prison. The bad men are expecting to return, and settle the score. The see the drifter as someone who can help them with there troubles. The drifter says he can help, but the town must do what he says. The drifter command strange things, like painting the town red. He also make it look like the town is glad to have these murders back. Then he makes the town's people arm themselves, and set up a trap for the bad guys. The towns people, refused to fight, and drop their guns. The bad guys ravage the town, and it's women. The High Plains Drifter steps in, and kill the bad guys. They he rides out of town, and vanish like a ghost. The high plains drifter was a ghost, a ghost of the sherif that was whipped to death by the bad guys. The High Plains Drifter came back to the town, and gave the people of the town a second chance. They failed to take the second chance, and the High Plain Drifter leaves them all in hell. He has moved on, they never will. I hate westerns, but this was good movie.
in the beginning you guys said that he didn't have a name but after the shootout in the barbershop the guy says, "What you say your name was again?" Eastwood says, "I Didn't." There you go. His name is Didn't, I Didnt.
I actually believe the stranger is the angel of vengeance, sent by god to judge these people for their crimes, and that the actual high plains he drifts down from is heaven. He's acting like he's going to leave until the sheriff says "what if we give you whatever you want", and then he stops (much like doing a deal with the devil). He also tells the Mexicans that they can't come to the barbeque, which seems a tad racist, until you realize that they had nothing to do with the marshal's death. He's protecting them, just like he does with Mordecai and the Indians in the shop . He manipulates everyone and everything and he always seems to have a sixth sense about what's happening (avoiding the murderers at the hotel and killing them instead). He's in control of the whole show right up to the end
Talk about completely missing the boat. Yes he raped her. The whole story (that you obviously missed) is that everyone in the town was being humiliated and punished for what they allowed to happen. People don't need to do movie reviews if they're not going to pay attention to the movie.
Shot mostly at Mono Lake east of Yosemite. There's a series of dormant volcanoes close to Mono Lake. Ashy soil, alkaline, trees don't grow well there. Mono Lake has tufas, weird towers of calcium carbonate. Anybody who lives near LA sees calcium carbonate on their showerheads, sink faucets, clogging their plumbing fixtures, making for bad tasting water. Locals call it lime, for short, it's limestone. The lake is mineral rich, lot of calcium, like dissolved baking soda. The freshwater springs emerging from the lake bottom mix with the minerals to form the tufas. Google tufa. Eastwood picked an unusual place to film.
I just didn't get if he was a drifter possessed by the spirit of the Marshall, a man somehow spiritually connected to the Marshall and supernaturally compelled to avenge unjust death, or an actual manifested phantom that could somehow interact with all the other characters in a very physical way. It was strange. To me the twist seemed very halfassed. I was hoping he was the Marshall's brother and somehow knew what the town had done to his brother. Maybe the whole twin brother mental connection thing. So at the end, when he said you know my name, he was speaking specifically about the last name, Duncan. But the movie is definitely leaning towards the supernatural concept with the camera work and music in that final scene.
19:51 maybe its as like that cliche saying you can give a man a fish and he has it today but give him how to fish and he can fish for life type , not worded that exact way but same type saying metaphor ?
I remember Clint’s character telling mordecai that the sheriff was his brother in the last shot of the German dub of the movie; wich kind of changed the whole film. Still a great one though
Thank You for that, because the American version never really explains that. I’ve been trying to theorize things about this movie and now I want to see foreign editions of this film. This is one of my favorite westerns of all time.
Tbh I think I like it better with him being this sort of ethereal embodiment of vengeance against the town's greed and corruption, but it's still interesting to hear these different twists on the story.
In the original script, he was the brother of the Marshall that came to seek vengeance. Eastwood decided to leave it a bit more open ended so the viewer can take their own interpretation of it. Interesting that the German dub put back in the brother thing.
This western is so fucking good! Famously, John Wayne apparently wrote Eastwood a letter just ripping this movie to shreds, saying that the west was not like this, on and on. It is such a great deconstruction of the western myth and some great lines as well. "You know, you're going to look awfully silly with that knife sticking up your ass." LOL. Yes the rape scene was.....uncomfortable, but you can see the whole town is evil. Definitely in my top 5 for any western ever, and one of Eastwood's best movies IMO. Looks great on the Blu Ray, filmed at Lake Mono, CA. One fact I have never found, is the Easter egg in the graveyard. Trivia sites say that Sergio Leones name is on one of the gravestones and I have looked and looked and can't find it. Is it cut out of the Blu Ray print maybe? Also, when Clint shoots Stacey Bridges, this is clearly a call back to Once Upon A Time In The West and Frank getting shot, they both say "Who are you"? Great film.
idk if u eventually mention this but clint eastwood was the marshal they killed and he came back for revenge thats why he just shows up and dissaperes like in pale rider hes a ghost
They at least made parts of the town sloppily painted red. Parts unfinished and a scene in the saloon the window is splattered with red paint. So parts appear rushed. At the end shouldn’t the last evil guy have been whipped instead of the first of the three? He simply shoots the guy.
You guys do fantastic film reviews. I just finished watching the full movie and now I really want to see if you guys did a review for Dawn of the Dead (1978).
Great work guys! This movie is a bit far out there in my humble opinion. The subversive anti-hero? Over here it´s titled "The man with the bull-whip". :)
You guys need to watch that a few dozen more times you'll really on the outer edges of what the movie is about its the town's people greed and love of money over anything else and there fake lives all based on money on greed over decenty. And there pay back is in the form of each one's personal chosen faults
@@jeeveseventynine9263 I am 19 years old, born in the very late 1990's and I much prefer older films during that era more than most films today, especially action.
Okay, I've watched enough to give you a follow. I'm not usually much for movie reviews but you guys are entertaining and personable and deserving of a watch. Good fun. Thanks for these videos. PS: I see the "Carnivale" DVDs in your collection. You must have enjoyed the series. Any chance of a review? I adore that show.
I'm sorry, but you two guys have no understanding of this film. Yes, Callie wanted the stranger, and she clearly enjoyed their encounter. She purposefully ran into him and knowingly provoked him. She was the town spatter (as you folks would say) and she became a part of Marshal Duncan's revenge.
none of the eastwood westerns are like ANY other western films... all have a completely different take and all have a very super real world look to them...
Great review on a CLASSIC, but I don't believe he was Jim Duncan there's also some scenes that made me have this theory; The scene when the Sheriff and Clint was eating, and Sarah Belding as the waitress in the scene, the Sheriff told Clint "The Marshal was the damning whipping he ever seen", and Clint was surprised then the final scene Stacey Bridges didn't even know who Clint was he would've recognized Jim Duncan's face that's just my theory 👍🏿
God I love this movie, this is one of my top 5 favorite westerns of all time.
It’s unique in my opinion.
My favorite Clint Eastwood Western Movie.... I love Hang Em High too.
@@yankeesfan3961 that’s a very good movie too.

Yo high plains drifter aint no joke, there aint no hero of this story. hell, this aint a story about a hero at all
Definitely not a hero, but an avenging spirit. In some ways it's more realistic since there are no good guys.
Like The Wraith 1986 with Charlie Sheen.
The bartender is Paul Brinegar, who was Wishbone the chuck wagon cook on Rawhide starting Clint Eastwood!
This is absolutely by far my favorite Eastwood film. With its creepy atmosphere, and eerie soundtrack it’s more a creepy ghost story as told through a western. Eastwood is brilliant as the mysterious stranger with no name who rides into town and quietly wreaks havoc. Many years later were still left wondering who was he really as he rides off into a hazy mirage from whenst he came???
geoffery lewis doesn't get near enough credit for his body of work- he was literally everywhere in the '70's, and into the '80's.
The initial script of this story reflected that Clint was the brother of the former Marshal Jim Duncan, who the townspeople had whipped to death. Clint was enacting his revenge on the townspeople for what they did to his brother. But in the movie, Clint left the background story vague and decided to give his presence a supernatural feel.
This makes more sense than a random stranger enacting revenge.
It would definitely take away from the mystery of his character if we were to know his motive right out the gate.
In the US 'paint the town red' means to have a wild celebration. So the Drifter is telling the outlaws that the town is celebrating their arrival.
That’s what I got from it also looks like hell so double entendre?
@@TheTheRandomShow1234 Depending who/what the Drifter really is, he could be pointing out the town is already damned and in hell.
I took it as a literal way of telling "this is a hell of your own doing". Their sins displayed on the walls clear for everyone to see.
One of probably my fave clints piece of work..
He has done so many great films.
Great channel guys
When the drifter clears the hotel, he is actually saving the lives of innocent bystanders.
Just caught this review, well done. I will say you did miss one detail about the Marshall's killing.

Yes this is a crucial plot point
That whipping scene was brutal.
Your reviews get me mentally pregnant with familiar feelings of camaraderie like no other people have.
*Sending appreciation to you*
Who doesn’t love a fistful of the outlaw pale drifter.
This is definitely my favorite Eastwood movie. The performances, the direction, the acting, the soundtrack, it's all there and totally brilliant!!!
One of my favorite Eastwood films.
And great review.
Fantastic ghostly & mysterious atmosphere to this Eastwood Western !!!
Great stuff !!

You guys put so much work into your videos I don’t get why you guys don’t have at least 200k subs already
No idea. Theyve only had quality.
The main demographic on this site is kids that may have something to do with it.
I think its just that this not really known i mean look at the amount of views they get
Whatever the original intention does not matter by the time we flash into the ending Fading Into the distance as a ghost, it's essentially set in stone what most people are going to think. Congratulations, you made a wild west ghost story.
Zooming into the tombstone doesn't imply a brother.
As I recall the two ladies enjoyed that quite a bit
Great review! would like to see a follow on review of pale rider....
The barber from this movie is the Ferryman from Josey Wales. Eastwood reuses all his players alot. This is a weird movie and I liked it more when I was younger than I do now....but still I appreciate you guys doing these reviews.
Awesome to see an actual review instead of a reaction. 2 of you did a great job with this one.
I'm not really a big western fan so I haven't seen this, thanks guys

I think its about time u dudes review Unforgiven now. The best western i ever saw and still one of my favorite movies. I am also still waiting on Finchers Zodiac review. :) Have fun!
Great work guys, loved it.
Would love to see Dazed and Confused at some stage
Pale Rider is New Testament, High Plains Drifter is Old Testament.
Just watched this review, very impressed. Well done. Thank You. I don't even know if you guys are still around - but great job!!

Kiki Lang Or maybe Clint is an avenging spirit?
Thomas Spearman: Maybe.
fab stuff as always thankyou guys xxx
He has them paint the town red because it's built on blood. A heavy-handed nod but it works.
Cool movie, cool review
in the beginning you guys said that he didn't have a name but after the shootout in the barbershop the guy says, "What you say your name was again?" Eastwood says, "I Didn't." There you go. His name is Didn't, I Didnt.
Just watched this movie today. Good movie.
you guys are great. You are both the sheriff and the mayor of movie reviewers. I love that part in the film.
John Quade was the guy behind Clint with the knife. He appeared as the villain in loads of 70s films & tv. The last thing I saw him in was La Bamba.
He was hilarious in Every Which Way But Loose and its sequel, both with Clint, as the leader of the biker gang.
I actually believe the stranger is the angel of vengeance, sent by god to judge these people for their crimes, and that the actual high plains he drifts down from is heaven. He's acting like he's going to leave until the sheriff says "what if we give you whatever you want", and then he stops (much like doing a deal with the devil).

Jason Givens, that was my take as well.
Spot on.
Shot mostly at Mono Lake east of Yosemite. There's a series of dormant volcanoes close to Mono Lake. Ashy soil, alkaline, trees don't grow well there. Mono Lake has tufas, weird towers of calcium carbonate. Anybody who lives near LA sees calcium carbonate on their showerheads, sink faucets, clogging their plumbing fixtures, making for bad tasting water. Locals call it lime, for short, it's limestone. The lake is mineral rich, lot of calcium, like dissolved baking soda. The freshwater springs emerging from the lake bottom mix with the minerals to form the tufas. Google tufa.
Eastwood picked an unusual place to film.
The drifter is proper in how he gives it to everyone in this movie. No exceptions.
I just didn't get if he was a drifter possessed by the spirit of the Marshall, a man somehow spiritually connected to the Marshall and supernaturally compelled to avenge unjust death, or an actual manifested phantom that could somehow interact with all the other characters in a very physical way. It was strange. To me the twist seemed very halfassed. I was hoping he was the Marshall's brother and somehow knew what the town had done to his brother. Maybe the whole twin brother mental connection thing. So at the end, when he said you know my name, he was speaking specifically about the last name, Duncan. But the movie is definitely leaning towards the supernatural concept with the camera work and music in that final scene.
Pale Rider was the unofficial sequel to this awesome movie, High Plains Drifter....
A Wraith Quality in this Spectre of a Western Spin on this Grim Prairie Tale , Awesome Review
Excellent review. Cheers mates.
One of my favorite Clint Eastwood movies, and one of my favorite Westerns. Watch "Bronco Billy".
This was the Coolest Hat he's ever worn
One of my all time favourites.
Superb review as usual guys. You guys are the bomb!!!👍
19:51 maybe its as like that cliche saying you can give a man a fish and he has it today but give him how to fish and he can fish for life type , not worded that exact way but same type saying metaphor ?
Pale Rider was Clint Eastwood's homage to the old westerns, in particular Shane. I love High Plains Drifter. Great movie.
*The way it was filmed, Clint definitely copied Sergio's style.*
Much like Pale Rider this one has that slight supernatural bend to it. As the afore mentioned The Wraith and The Quick and the Dead
Great Western. I'm not sure the last time you guys attended Sunday School but there are some big Old Testament vibes going on in this film.
Can you please expound on this? I’d like to know before I watch it again.
I remember Clint’s character telling mordecai that the sheriff was his brother in the last shot of the German dub of the movie; wich kind of changed the whole film. Still a great one though

Very cool movie. I can see it's influence in later films like The Wraith 1986 and The Quick and the Dead 1995.
Why do I get the feeling Iain doesn't rehearse his introductions with Gary before they film them?
Watched this the other day and honestly it slightly plays like a horror movie. I was like bruh what kind of western is this and I fucking loved it
This western is so fucking good! Famously, John Wayne apparently wrote Eastwood a letter just ripping this movie to shreds, saying that the west was not like this, on and on. It is such a great deconstruction of the western myth and some great lines as well. "You know, you're going to look awfully silly with that knife sticking up your ass." LOL.

The difference is that Frank gets to find out who his Nemesis is when he gets the harmonica put in his mouth.
Nice great job!
Bro this was deadass an italian styled horror movie in reverse the whole time.
The whole last 15 minutes was just Italian Style Horror.
My 4th favourite western of all time, just behind the dollars trilogy.
You said they had already done Josey Wales but that was three years after Drifter
idk if u eventually mention this but clint eastwood was the marshal they killed and he came back for revenge thats why he just shows up and dissaperes like in pale rider hes a ghost

Great work guys! This movie is a bit far out there in my humble opinion. The subversive anti-hero? Over here it´s titled "The man with the bull-whip". :)
Wyatt and his brothers are rolling in there grave of “This is how every Gunslinger killed and raped anyone they pleased at this time.”
Dam, Gary your beard is becoming a thing to behold!
You can't rape the willing. That wasn't a rape, the lady absolutely set up that interaction with the hopes of what happened to happen.
Great film, definitely one of Clint's better works.
2:49 in the USA it came out i believe in 87. (:
You guys need to watch that a few dozen more times you'll really on the outer edges of what the movie is about its the town's people greed and love of money over anything else and there fake lives all based on money on greed over decenty. And there pay back is in the form of each one's personal chosen faults
clint probably told her to smack the cigarello out of his mouth- he hated those things.
Yeah, the pale horse definitely comes from Revelations 6:7-8, the death
I watched this movie and the deeper I go, the most interesting it gets
You guys are great reviewers. Can you please review all the Dirty Harry films? Those are my favorites of Clint Eastwood's and favorite cop thrillers.
I think Eastwood has better films but Dirty Harrys are very enjoyable indeed. I miss the cop movies from that era so much.

Okay, I've watched enough to give you a follow. I'm not usually much for movie reviews but you guys are entertaining and personable and deserving of a watch.
Good fun. Thanks for these videos.
PS: I see the "Carnivale" DVDs in your collection. You must have enjoyed the series. Any chance of a review? I adore that show.
Can you do Love at First Bite. One of my favorite vampire movies.
*Turn up*
The Outlaw Jersey Wells and Unforgiven are my favorite clinics wood westerns
a big movie ! ( but the french dubbing suck in the original the stranger say it,s my grave, on the french he say it,s my brother grave grrrr grrrrr )
I'm sorry, but you two guys have no understanding of this film. Yes, Callie wanted the stranger, and she clearly enjoyed their encounter. She purposefully ran into him and knowingly provoked him. She was the town spatter (as you folks would say) and she became a part of Marshal Duncan's revenge.
none of the eastwood westerns are like ANY other western films... all have a completely different take and all have a very super real world look to them...
Great review on a CLASSIC, but I don't believe he was Jim Duncan there's also some scenes that made me have this theory;
The scene when the Sheriff and Clint was eating, and Sarah Belding as the waitress in the scene, the Sheriff told Clint "The Marshal was the damning whipping he ever seen", and Clint was surprised then the final scene Stacey Bridges didn't even know who Clint was he would've recognized Jim Duncan's face that's just my theory 👍🏿
