BAMcinématek 2017
series Edgar Wright Presents Heist Society
Directed by Michael Cimino | 1974
With Clint Eastwood, Jeff Bridges, George Kennedy
“Michael Cimino’s debut movie, a higly entertaining heist yarn starring Clint Eastwood and Jeff Bridges. Dry humour, oddball encounters & some of the finest ’70s shirts to grace the screen.”
—EDGAR WRIGHT
Amidst the wide open majesty of Montana, an ex-con turned preacher (Eastwood) resumes his bank robbing ways when he teams up with a brash young scofflaw (Bridges). Clint Eastwood’s tough guy terseness plays nicely off Jeff Bridges’ goofy amiability in this wonderfully loose-limbed combination of ‘70s road movie, buddy comedy, and heist film, which marked the feature debut of The Deer Hunter director Michael Cimino.
