Review: High Plains Drifter

Early 70s revenge Western with flashes of darkly comic humour and hints of the supernatural.

Plot wise, it feels slightly confused - but all you really need to know is that there's skullduggery lurking in various quarters - and Clint means to make them pay.

Eastwood brings gruff charisma to the eponymous part. When he smiles though, his natural star quality is in danger of breaking the illusion.


Verdict: Solid Western with unusual imagery.
