Este bello representante del pueblo navajo, es, para mi, la viva imagen de un joven guerrero.

Impressive beauty.
One of my favorite westerns, Escape from Fort Bravo (1953, John Sturges), starring the fabulous Eleanor Parker and the great William Holden. A much overlooked western with incredible tension, action and romance. I've never seen a grittier battle with the Indians which, unlike many other westerns, are presented as witty brave warriors when in combat. I also love the soundtrack and the melancholic tune of Soothe My Lonely Heart. Unforgettable.
This October's recommendation is this psychological western called The Unforgiven and filmed by the great John Huston in 1960. Its magnificent cast is lead by Burt Lancaster and Audrey Hepburn, in tandem with Audie Murphy, Charles Bickford an Lillian Gish.
A fantastic film about the perils of intolerance and fanaticism, with exceptional performances for deep and intense portrayals. An excellent western, almost completely forgotten but worth watching and discussing. Don't miss the opportunity and this fall, try to see The Unforgiven. It's a must.
