Sam Peckinpah’s The Wild Bunch isn’t just a Western. It’s a savage ballad of dying legends, drenched in gunpowder and regret. When the dust settles, only the myth remains. ⬇️⬇️⬇️ cinephiliabeyond.org/the-wild-bun...

GOLD! Brian De Palma wrote a remake of TREASURE OF THE SIERRA MADRE many years ago that added an intriguing twist to Huston's film. Instead of gold, he planned to make it about cocaine. 👀 A reading opportunity that should not be missed: drive.google.com/file/d/114xY... #Scriptsky
