Peckinpah's purest vision of male masculinity and the madness of nihilism is given a long overdue 35mm and digital makeover. Made in 1974, Peckinpah's misleadingly simple fable of a bar manager's attempt to claim the reward money for the head of a young man who has misguidedly impregnated the daughter of a Mexican land baron, is surely one of the greatest films of all time.
