This film, The Unforgiven, as opposed to Clint Eastwood's classic is taken from a novel by Alan LeMay who also wrote The Searchers. Both stories are about the post Civil War Texas frontier. But in this one we have the... Full review

When the weird Abe Kelsey (Joseph Wiseman) with his saber appears in the Zachary's ranch threatening the matriarch Mattilda Zachary (Lillian Gish) and her stepdaughter Rachel (Audrey Hepburn), she does not tell to her sons Ben (Burt Lancaster), Cash (Audie... Full review

The Most Ambitious Western Ever

aimless-46 - imdb.com
Not to be confused with Clint Eastwood's 1992 film "Unforgiven", "THE Unforgiven" is a 1960 John Huston film that is almost worthy of joining Eastwood's as one of the top ten westerns of all-time. That it falls slightly short of... Full review

The Unforgiven is a reversal of John Ford's The Searchers. The pivotal character in both films is a young woman stolen from her people as a babe, and both films involve to different degrees a long search by her family... Full review
I have read the comments posted about this remarkable movie and have to wonder if the writers watched the movie. If they did it reflects an appalling lack of historical knowledge. Audrey Hepburn plays Rachel Zachary, a Kiowa Indian girl... Full review

`The Unforgiven' has a lot in common with `The Searchers' , both were written by Alan Le May and both are westerns that deal with racism. They also show the lonely life of the pioneers, how hard it must have been... Full review

Believe this is John Houston's only movie of the old west, and he made a wonderful adult western. Only Houston could make a western with leading actors like Lancaster, Hepburn, Gish, Murphy, Bickford, Salmi, Hamilton, Saxon, and Wiseman to be... Full review
A hidden gem, better than The Searchers

Marc - imdb.com
I can't figure it out. Why does everyone love The Searchers? John Wayne's young sidekick in that film, and his absurd romance, sink the film like a stone. This film, which deals with a number of the same issues -... Full review
Audrey Hepburn, from the indian tribe from south of london.

Walter Gibson - imdb.com
I am in no way criticizing the film by saying this, but what kind of accent is that by Audrey Hepburn. It's not that her performance is bad, no, it's great. But Audrey Hepburn could never sound like she should... Full review

TotalFilm
Still, its a solid-enough piece and typically Huston-esque in the way it folds big themes race, prejudice into the action. Director John Huston hated his own 1960 Western, and you cant entirely blame him its anti-racist impulses are roundly scuppered come the close. ... Full Review

The Unforgiven looks great on MGM's DVD. The Unforgiven pulls off miracles of sophisticated storytelling, only to graft an ending no different from dozens of conventional Westerns. ... Full Review

I've been stalling on the review for Guitar Hero Metallica because there's really not a whole lot to say. As I said in the preview , it is what's advertised: Guitar Hero with Metallica. ... Full Article

Ever since the Guitar Hero franchise launched, fans have argued about which bands deserve to appear in the games. One group that made an early appearance in the series and has been a mainstay ever since is Metallica, the heavy... ... Full Article
