Clint Eastwood is a reformed outlaw who straps his guns on
for the last time because he's a pig-farmer with sick pigs, and a bounty, offered for the
killing of a couple of cowboys who slashed a prostitute, sounds like easy money.
SEX/NUDITY 3 - In the opening scene, a man and woman are shown having
"mechanical" sex, in a brothel. They are partially dressed. Women of the brothel
are shown in undergarments of the period. No nudity.
VIOLENCE/GORE 6 - In the first scene, a woman gets cut on the face several
times. Very little is shown, but the sound of slicing is audible. Richard Harris is kicked
repeatedly until bloody. Morgan Freeman is whipped with a bull-whip while strapped to the
bars of a jail cell. Clint Eastwood is kicked and punched until he can no longer stand.
Several people are shot and are shown bleeding. Violence is not cartoonish; it is shown
with great realism.
PROFANITY 5 - The F-word is used once, and some scattered foul language. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Death, violence, prostitution and the complexity of killing:
For money, honor or any other noble or ignoble cause.
MESSAGE - You really can't teach an old dog new tricks.
