Storyline

The town of Big Whisky is full of normal people trying to lead quiet lives. Cowboys try to make a living. Sheriff 'Little Bill' tries to build a house and keep a heavy-handed order. The town whores just try to get by.Then a couple of cowboys cut up a whore. Unsatisfied with Bill's justice, the prostitutes put a bounty on the cowboys. The bounty attracts a young gun billing himself as 'The Schofield Kid', and aging killer William Munny. Munny reformed for his young wife, and has been raising crops and two children in peace. But his wife is gone. Farm life is hard. And Munny is no good at it. So he calls his old partner Ned, saddles his ornery nag, and rides off to kill one more time, blurring the lines between heroism and villainy, man and myth. Written by Charlie Ness

Trivia

The script floated around Hollywood for nearly 20 years, during which time Gene Hackman read and rejected it, only to be later convinced by Clint Eastwood (who had owned the rights to the script for some time) to play a role. See more »

Goofs

Revealing mistakes: After shooting the pheasants from the railroad car, English Bob holds the barrel of his Colt Peacemaker up and opens the side-gate of the cylinder, rotates the cylinder and the empty shells fall out. Empty casings cannot fall out of the cylinder as they expand during the discharge of the shell. The Peacemaker has a spring-loaded push-rod attached under the barrel to eject the casings from the cylinder after they are fired. See more »
