The Great Silence

The Great Silence

Directed by Sergio Corbucci • 1968 • Italy, France
Starring Jean-Louis Trintignant, Klaus Kinski, Frank Wolff

On an unforgiving, snow-swept frontier, a group of bloodthirsty bounty hunters led by the vicious Loco (Klaus Kinski) prey on a band of persecuted outlaws who have taken to the hills. As the price on each head is collected one by one, only a mute gunslinger named Silence (Jean-Louis Trintignant) stands between the innocent refugees and the greed and corruption that the bounty hunters represent. But, in this brutal world, the lines between right and wrong aren’t always clear and good doesn’t always triumph. Featuring superb photography and a haunting score from maestro Ennio Morricone, Sergio Corbucci’s bleak, brilliant, and violent vision of an immoral, honorless west is widely considered to be among the very best and most influential Euro-westerns ever made.
