CLIP DESCRIPTION:
William Munny (Clint Eastwood) and the 'Schofield Kid' (Jaimz Woolvett) are ready to leave with the money when they're informed of Ned's death at the hands of Little Bill.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Dedicated to his mentors Sergio Leone and Don Siegel, Clint Eastwood's 1992 Oscar-winner examines the mythic violence of the Western, taking on the ghosts of his own star past. Disgusted by Sheriff "Little Bill" Daggett's decree that several ponies make up for a cowhand's slashing a whore's face, Big Whiskey prostitutes, led by fierce Strawberry Alice (Frances Fisher), take justice into their own hands and put a $1000 bounty on the lives of the perpetrators. Notorious outlaw-turned-hog farmer William Munny (Eastwood) is sought out by neophyte gunslinger the Schofield Kid (Jaimz Woolvett) to go with him to Big Whiskey and collect the bounty. While Munny insists, "I ain't like that no more," he needs the bounty money for his children, and the two men convince Munny's clean-living comrade Ned Logan (Morgan Freeman) to join them in righting a wrong done to a woman. Little Bill (Oscar-winner Gene Hackman), however, has no intention of letting any bounty hunters impinge on his iron-clad authority. When pompous gunman English Bob (Richard Harris) arrives in Big Whiskey with pulp biographer W.W. Beauchamp (Saul Rubinek) in tow, Little Bill beats Bob senseless and promises to tell Beauchamp the real story about violent frontier life and justice. But when Munny, the true unwritten legend, comes to town, everyone soon learns a harsh lesson about the price of vindictive bloodshed and the malleability of ideas like "justice." "I don't deserve this," pleads Little Bill. "Deserve's got nothin' to do with it," growls Munny, simultaneously summing up the insanity of western violence and the legacy of Eastwood's Man With No Name.

[@Richman-iw4tv]

When he says "Give it to me" the kid realizes he just met the real William Munny. This movie is an absolute master class from the writing, the directing , the acting and even the cinematography.

[@roddangerson2046]

This is the most brilliant movie of all time hands down you are right

[@drgwhatsthetruth3783]

Yep. Reckon so.

[@johndickson76]

I thought the kid was quite courageous telling Munny exactly how he felt about him after finding out what a cold blooded killer he was. And the acting performance from all three was wonderful, especially the young lady.

[@DavidSmith-ss1cg]

@@johndickson76 - Even MORE disturbing is when suddenly the real William Munny is revealed: perceptive, and not quite so shy or fearful. William Munny knows what to do about it, too - and he snatches the bottle from the kid and demands his revolver. It also makes you wonder how many of the "violent and intemperate killer" William Munny's victims had struck at him first and - in the rude code of the US Frontier - "asked for it." In most of the movie, Little Bill has no problem with being a bully while being the sheriff; he beat English Bob like a gong, and even beat up the shy and sober William Munny. Of course, that doesn't mean that he was "asking for it", does it?

[@tamferguson3891]

This is scene is so chilling. Will is told in graphic detail how his best friend was brutally murdered and rather than having a emotional outburst or cry, he starts sipping from a bottle. He's been sober for ten years and he throws it all away without a second thought. When Eastwood eventually leaves us mortals, this film will be remembered as his greatest achievement.

[@The2ndFirst]

I think without question. I remember him now as a "Tough guy" of my youth. Most of his movies are popcorn munchers and more or less silly. Unforgiven was remarkably good.

It's exposition, but done in the right way. We'd seen the character developing. "Killer of women and Children" we'd heard. Then we actually heard about how he dynamited a train, and killed a US Marshall and all of a sudden "The Kid" realizes that he's riding along with purest, truest evil.

Yeah, it was a great scene. The kid finally realizes all the stories are true and then some. That Munny was more dangerous than anyone he had ever met or was likely to meet and would kill him without a second thought if the mood hit him.

A shout out to this lovely actress who for the most part is the narrator and focal point of this scene as she tells a heart wrenching story. Hard for any actor, especially a young one. Well done.

[@davidolie8392]

Her name is Tara Fredericks. She used to cut my hair when I lived in Halifax, NS, in the '80s. Then she moved out west to get into modeling. She was sent out to the audition call by her agency just for the experience, and ended up getting the part. As far as I know it's the only acting role she ever did.

[@mmeettwwoo]

She was a natural, but I can say from personal experience that being an extra in the film biz ain't so much fun, even if you have a few lines. There's a whole lot of just hanging around for hours on end.

[@Danny_Lopez_]

She did an extremely good job in this scene. The emotion coming out as she is telling the story could be felt by the viewers. Though there are scenes and actors in other movies to compare this to, I cannot think of any at the moment.

[@leejee88]

She owned this scene big time the fear she conveyed when she was telling about ned revealing will munies true identity to little bill .She sums up the type of person who was its pure genius even now as i watch it it gives me the chills and the way clint eastwood plays off that to fuel his characters motivations at that moment brillant all the more reason for this film to be considered great and classic westerns of its time

[@willmccormick947]

One of MANY brilliant things about this film is it is the story of a bad man trying to be good but fate and his true nature force him back to his old ways. It's the reverse of the archetypal "bad guy with a heart of gold" who pretends to be bad but is actually an OK guy inside (think Han Solo). William Munny spends much of the movie in denial of what he is saying he's changed and blaming alcohol for his past actions (even while planning on murdering 2 men for a bounty) but when his pathology returns in the last scene it is terrifying. And when Little Bill says "I'll see you in Hell" and Munny acknowledges "Yeah," its the culmination of his character arc. He knows that he, like Little Bill, are indeed headed to Hell. That Munny is indeed, "unforgiven." Masterful.

[@NilausI]

I like your interpretation - never saw it that way.

[@geovannomozes7010]

Will McCormick like Logan

[@jameson32]

His soft spot and respect for the women kind of ruins that analysis a little.

[@gmccord1970]

Will McCormack unfortunately I'm going to have to disagree with your analysis. William Munny was indeed a criminal and an outlaw. If you recall at the very beginning of the film The narration mentions about how Munnys mother-in-law would make the journey to Kansas to visit the last resting place of her only daughter and how she was completely dumbfounded as to how her only daughter would marry a man like Munny. Money's wife had forgiven him and this of course led to his transformation to leave his past behind and to live a righteous life. However William money will always be Unforgiven because he is a wanted man and his reputation of being a outlaw and killer. It is implied that William Munny is redeemed for his crimes based on the life that he tried to lead and to provide for his children. Little bill on the other hand represents the hypocritical Pharisee from the Bible. He is the town's Sheriff who thinks that he is righteous because he is upholding the law even though his town has a brothel and allows prostitution. In fact it is implied that little Bill probably receives kickbacks from the prostitution ring not to mention allowing these women to be abused in front of him. William Munny represents the saved sinner while Little Bill represents the hypocritical corrupted. With regards to the final scene I think when the sheriff said I'll see you in hell William Munny and his reply was yeah his response was more like "yeah whatever"

When he grabs that bottle...one of the best moments in the history of cinema.

[@jcisthe1337]

Yup

[@TheDeathlessLordCerberus]

As much as I love the ending, I adore this scene. The fact the kid throughout the movie acted as if killing was easy and thought Will Munny was old and lost it, only to admit killing is hard and he can't be as cold as will after actually killing someone. The fact Will never drank no matter how hard or closed in he felt, only to take a sip and give in to his past after he learned of his friends death. So many small things that amplify a great story! Also I should add, I loved how through the movie its told people were scared of Will and not adoring through his evil days, and when the Kid catches a glimpse of who Will Munny really was at this scene, and is scared as much as the ghosts of wills past was amazing.

[@thecowboy9698]

"I ain't like you, Will." That kid showed some moral strength. That's the line that really impressed me, when he was confronted with what a cold-blooded killer really is, he took a stand and said: "No, I'm not like that, and I dont ever want to be anything like that."

[@bastardjustice]

@@thecowboy9698 yup I also agree to that. He was so proud of himself at first, even lying about his exploits. But in the end, he was so remorseful and feared Will. It's like staring directly in the eyes of death itself. That's why Will reassured him that he will not kill him because he already treats him as a friend, hell, Will probably looks at him as his own son.

[@LordZontar]

One of Clint Eastwood's best scenes from any of his movies. You see him transform as the monster he had been rises up from the depths of his subconscious, that he had kept buried for years and had denied. But with each pull on the bottle, you see him transform back into William Munny out of Missouri --- who had killed just about everything that walked or crawled. It's very subtle, as his face and eyes set and become harder, the voice colder. By the end of that third swig, the Monster has taken over and you know a lot of men are going to die.

[@wildbillfirehands]

[@johnc.8298]

NO monster, just a man with a sense of justice about to be unleashed on the murderers of his friend who "he never killed nobody". Little Bill and his accomplices needed killin'.

[@bbigio]

Hands down this is one of the best scenes of the movie. The way her voice breaks once she reveals who Ned revealed he was (notice the roundabout way the reveal occurs), the way the kid looks at him once she reports his brutal killing of another sheriff, and, as you say, the pull of the bottle and his transformation into the predatory beast he always was. It's almost as he was disbelieving at the outset that Ned had died because he didn't want the monster to take over. The unfortunate thing is that he has to. I see other comments that say that coming for the bounty indicates his lack of moral scruples, but he really does it out of poverty and his orphaned kids. This scene changes everything. The sunset, the lady on the horse, the fall of the bottle to the ground -as if, I don't need to drink more: I am my older self. How we, as humans, are always on the verge of rallying the beast in us when something outrageous and disheartening suddenly happens. Humanism is animalism.

Just watched the movie tonight and this is exactly right. His entire manner of speech subtly, but definitively changes. Like he's shedding off a 'character' he was playing, just quoting lines that he convinced himself were true ("you're dear departed Ma", "I ain't like that no more". "I'm just a fella now". After he takes that drink and transforms back to his old, true self....he speaks directly, matter of factly, and with a cold burning passion ready to boil over. Nothing like the semi-befuddled and adrift farmer he pretended to be.

[@andrewcady8827]

@@mkaleborn At first he's in denial that Ned could even have been killed. As if Ned's innocence (itself also a denial, since Ned wasn't innocent of their plot just because he didn't pull the trigger) was some kind of protection from being killed. Denial -> acceptance. Deserve's got nothing to do with it.

[@naynaynay324]

To me it's more coming full circle in a devolutional (or disillusional) kind of way. Will fought with himself for years trying to convince himself "I'm not like that anymore" only to succumb to the monster he really is when pressed hard enough. He always was the killer, thus Unforgiven.

[@john_sparks]

I love all the comments here because everyone actually seems to have a valid point. We just all have a slightly different point of view. Maybe that's one reason this is such a great movie. There are so many layers of truth. Like the point about Ned. I had not thought about it that way but Ned really wasn't innocent. He plotted and helped convince Will to go do the killing at the start. And maybe you can call it devolution back to who he really is, but I will argue that this perspective somewhat diminishes the real and legitimate change Will's wife made in him. There's no evidence for this I guess, but I like to think that this good woman legitimately changed Will to a good man. Like a demonic spirit, the evil in Will left him thanks to the influence of a woman with a pure heart. And even after she was dead and gone, the "new" Will was passively raising his kids and wrestling with pigs to make a good life for their children. Even in the assassination journey, Will reluctantly commits evil acts. After shooting one guy, he feels pity for his act. "Give him some damn water. We ain't gonna shoot." You can see the pain and suffering in Will even during these killings. But when he hears that his beloved friend Ned has been tortured and killed and then put on display in front of the bar... there is what I candidature this new and total character change back to the evil Will. Maybe call it devolution but that implies the evil was always there. I like to think that Will was truly a good man throughout the movie until that critical moment. Then, just as Will changed profoundly for his wife, he returns to the personification of evil he was before. I guess that can be called devolution. To me it's a second coming. It's just that... in an odd twist of the words...Will is reborn as an evil man. I guess that best sums up the chill I feel in those moments of change. "They decorated Greely's bar with him?" "But Little Bill wasn't afraid was he?"

The Kid had though that Munny was old and washed up but in that moment realized wht Munny really was and was terrified of him.

Nah. Munny has no reason to kill him. Rather the contrary. He is proud that he learned his lessons about violence instantly. This was something that Munny could do as well at some point. But he didn't, and now he lives in hell of nightmares, regrets, and dwindling sanity.

[@bastardjustice]

That line was kinda like a setup. We get to hear stories about Will being a badass outlaw but in the beginning of the film he looks fragile and can't even ride his horse right. It kinda gives a simple vibe that everything about his past is a lie. You can see during the scene when the kid asked him about killing 2 people at once and he forgot about it. And also the lies the English Bob and the kid makes. It also makes the viewers doubt Will as a badass killer. And now that question Will asked the lady, makes it look like he is using his reputation to fear Bill. But alas, Will is the real deal. And that delivered the film into pure thrill and awesomeness.

She really makes the scene you can feel how scared she is of William because she see’s him as the monster he used to be. Love this damn movie.

Adino1 Some liberals might enjoy this movie for the quality of acting and direction, but they sure as hell don't love the context. Or perhaps they do. It could serve to fuel their hatred towards white men. We are all evil killers after all. Are we not?

My favorite part of the story was that ned told bill that munny was gonna kill him if he kept hurting him. The man was being tortuted but he sure as hell knew william munny would get revenge and even in his dieing moments he could laugh in their faces.

[@leejee88]

the female actress makes this scene so effective in that she conveys the right kind of fear that someone like will instilled in a person the man was pure evil at one point .The fact that little bill wasnt willing even then in the face of all the facts to take will seriously shows he got what was coming to him and he deserved it

[@LandersWorkshop]

I think she was more afraid of Little Bill than Munny who had previously been ok and decent with them so they pretty much trusted the two assassins.

[@RunDub]

"Deserves" got nothing to do with it.

[@jamescarey6866]

You got it wrong. Its not that Little Bill didn't take him seriously. Litte Bill was not afraid, when everybody else was, and Munny knows it and does not care. I like that both the kid and the girl are absolutely terrified of Munny by this point.

[@keiththompson2172]

“I was building a house!”

[@bernie4366]

Little Bill didn't know who he was until Ned told him. It's not that he didn't take Munny seriously, he just expected that he was going to have to chase Munny down. Instead Munny came to his door.

[@9sunskungfu]

I've seen every single Clint Eastwood film, including his westerns. Aside from the spaghetti westerns he did with Sergio, this is his finest work. I miss seeing Clint in a western.

[@62SG]

1:30 Love how she starts breaking up when she says he killed women and children. It's like she's begging him to deny it.

Did you notice how slow Clint turned his head just before he said "that didn't scare little Bill, did it?" Very scary!

[@stevem2323]

He is such phenomenal actor in doing that non verbal acting, legendary.

[@ek2156]

I love how Clint/William reacts to the whiskey at 1:35-40! He shudders for a split second after his 2nd snort of it. Great acting! It like a shock to William's system, unlocking all the mean traits hidden deep inside of him...

I love the acting of the actress here. Her crying grows louder as her fear of Will grows as she keeps telling him about Ned. Being unfortunately the son of a hot tempered and violent father you can tell when some who is cold blooded gets angry. I love Mr. Eastwood character's anger too. He doesn't shout or swear it's a cold callous anger. The type of anger that is calm and deadly.

After all these years this still gives me goosebumps. My God, the writing, directing and acting was so damned perfect. One of the greatest westerns of all time.

Possibly the best scene. So many layers unfolding. All 3 actors on point. You can watch this with no sound and still feel the "turn" and tension. And that face at 0:47 ...Munny awakens.

[@BNILES41]

26 years ago, I just looked down and frowned bad knowing Ned was dead. Now I drink 3 swigs of whiskey ever time I watch this scene.

[@oceandark3044]

I kind of see the symbolism here. Will Munney spends the whole movie as a killer pretending to be a regular fella. The "Schofield kid" spends the whole movie as a regular fella pretending to be a killer. And as soon as Will Munney decides what he's going to do, he turns to the kid and takes the Schofield. And now the kid is just a kid, and the killer is again a killer.

[@BPOOHEAD189]

How does Clint Eastwood so unequivocally look like the epitome of a grim badass? I'm not even trying to exaggerate or be sensationalist. He just pulls it off so well, I can't believe it.

[@skiptaggart8116]

He learned a lot about acting badass and directing from his mentor, Sergio Leone. In fact, this film, Unforgiven, contains a dedication in the movie credits from Eastwood... "Dedicated to Sergio and Don". Don is director Don Siegel, another mentor.

that sip of the bottle.. ominous sign that he's going back to his old ways...

1:46 the very moment when the kid figures out that this guy really is the badass killer that he didn't think he was.

[@karlnoel4519]

"So Little Bill killed him... for what we done." Eastwood delivers the line flatly, with no emotion other than a trace of disbelief. But the suddenly muted tone is not because his anger at the news of Ned's murder is already gone. It's because Will is now completely gone, and we've just heard the first line uttered by William Muny, the new character who the girl immediately introduces to us and to the Schofield Kid.

[@NormAppleton]

She sees that beast coming out. He was saved. Now he's come back. A necessary evil.

[@DarkMatterX1]

She's right to be afraid. William Munny was a real deal cold blooded killer.

[@000distructzero]

Great movie.. Notice how Munny isn't shocked at all how Ned told Little Bill he "was more cold blooded than William Bonney".. After both kept saying how he 'wasn't like that anymore.' or how it was the whiskey that made him wicked and how Claudia had 'cured' him. Both men knew it was bull,... Munny at his core drunk or sober was a vicious cold blooded killer..

upland77 for the historical record most of billy the kids victims were shot in the back, not really a tall order to be more cold than cowardly shooting victims in the back

[@brendanforester4601]

kb72977 Actually, of the men Billy the Kid was confirmed to have killed, none of them were shot in the back. Frank Cahill and Joe Grant: Shot in self-defense. J.W. Bell and Bob Olinger: Shot while escaping jail. Both shot in the front. (Killing Bell was reluctant on Billy's part). Sheriff William Brady: Ambushed by the Regulators from the side. (And not shot only by Billy). Other kills credited to him were actually done by fellow Regulators. He was tough for his youth and a very skilled shot, but he was not a cold-blooded murderer as is often thought of him.

At about the one minute mark you see the conflict inside Munny. He knows who is, what he is and even though he has tried for many years to not be the man he was (is) he knows that he can't escape it. He has to make it right for Ned, because he's the reason Ned was killed; he can't let that stand. I love the acting as he struggles to try to do right by his deceased wife and get justice for Ned. Very powerful yet subtle emotional scene.
