I watched a documentary on Boetticher a while back on TCM. They interviewed Clint Eastwood and Quentin Tarantino who both confessed that they were strongly influenced by Boetticher’s work. A couple of weekends back, I got a chance to watch “Seven Men from Now” and it was not what I expected. There was a lot of understated emotion in that movie that was surprising given its theme. Oh and not to spoil it for anyone but the final showdown with Lee Marvin(one of my favorites) totally blew me away! Western movie fans should plan on seeing “Seven Men from Now” the next time it airs.
