Business people

• USSR, 1962.
• Duration: 84 min.
• IMDb: 7,8.
• "Kinopoisk": 8.2.

Soviet comic Western inspired by the works of O. Henry. The film consists of three stories in three unrelated to each other novels. Such a composition - a triptych - really liked the Soviet audiences, and later in the same way were removed "Operation" Y "and other adventures Shurik" and "Can not be!". If "Business people" were left without your attention on the background of other comedies Gaidai, should definitely fix it.

corpse

• USA, Germany, Japan, 1995.
• Duration: 121 minutes.
• IMDb: 7,7.
• "Kinopoisk": 7.9.

Another unusual Western, this time by Jim Jarmusch. Mystical images and simple story fascinated and immersed into a state similar to dromoy. But at the same time, an unusual installation and mounting tension for a second did not allow to take your eyes off the screen.

"Dead Man" - the most expensive film of this independent director. Including due to the participation of Johnny Depp.

Unforgiven

• United States, 1992.
• Duration: 131 minutes.
• IMDb: 8,3.
• "Kinopoisk": 7.9.

Star of Westerns Clint Eastwood took "Unforgiven" in memory of Sergio Leone, successfully coped with the role of actor and director. Filming was short - just over a month. But it was enough to create a masterpiece which received four "Oscar" (nine nominations), two "Golden Globe" and other awards. Clint Eastwood is definitely a genius!

Legends of the fall

• USA, 1994.
• Duration: 133 minutes.
• IMDb: 7,5.
• "Kinopoisk": 8.0.

Western Edward Zwick, who did not like the critics, but was a success with the audience. Actors - Brad Pitt, Anthony Hopkins and Julia Ormond. Good camera work, which received the "Oscar". A good soundtrack. Perhaps in that year came too many bright films, which took away the positive critical acclaim in "Legends of the Fall" - judge for yourself.
