Movie propaganda
...an army of one.
After avenging his family's brutal murder, Josey Wales (Clint Eastwood) is on the lam, pursued by a pack of killers. He travels alone, but a ragtag group of outcasts is drawn to him - and Wales can't leave his motley surrogate family unprotected.
Eastwood's skill before and behind the camera connected with audiences for its humour and tenderness as well as its hair-trigger action.

Theatrical report
A good western, with Cowboys, Indians, Confederates, Yankees, Farmers, Hill Folk, Settlers, Renegades, Banditos and Shoot-outs. What more could you ask for?
The outlaw Josey Wales is a classic piece of Clint Eastwood cinema, with good guys and bad guys clearly defined, the hero just one step ahead of the bad guys, and the ever present warning: don't push a good man too far because he just might come back and get you.
Yeehar!
