Generally considered one of the truly great movies of the
1970s, McCabe and Mrs. Miller is Robert Altmans poignant anti-Western Western,
a genre-subverting multi-layered tour de force shot in grainy, washed-out
colours and gloomy shadows in the snowbound landscape of the north-west
frontier at the turn of the twentieth century. Star performances from Warren
Beatty as the gambling gunfighter brothel entrepreneur and luminous Julie
Christie as his partner. Memorable soundtrack by Leonard Cohen.
