Dead for a dollar Directed by Walter Hill

The vast outdoors is a symbol of freedom. The good and the bad ride through immense territories. These men are the heroes, the myth, anarchy, nihilism. They interpret the moral law in an infinite desert. Justice is not efficient. There are numerous, powerful and merciless enemies. Perhaps even the law is sometimes unfair. It is the West, unique, immortal, legendary.

These themes were modified with more mainstream ones, in Walter Hill's latest film, Dead for a Dollar, a western set between New Mexico and Mexico, presented at the 79th Venice Film Festival.
