1.888.861.7323 "The Magnificent Seven" (128 min, Rated R, 1960, John Sturges) Think twice before riling up this band of seven gunmen. They’re a motley bunch of drifters recruited to help a Mexican village defend itself against repeated plundering by outlaws. Transcending a simple conflict between Good and Evil, Sturges depicts evolving relationships among seven egotists who slowly become amigos. By the time the bandits strike, the mercenaries have more at stake than their profits. The honor code of warriors in Akira Kurosawa’s Seven Samurai (1954) is the basis for the plot, but Sturges wisely replaced swords with six-shooters. The cast includes Yul Brynner, Eli Wallach, Steve McQueen, Charles Bronson and other Hollywood magnificents.Date and Time
