Synopsis
The Outlaw Josey Wales (1976) is Clint Eastwood's western, and you can watch it online on iFILM. After Union raiders slaughter his family, a Missouri farmer picks up a gun and stops forgiving anyone.
Josey refuses to surrender with the rest of the Confederate guerrillas, which marks him for a whole squad of soldiers in pursuit. He means to ride alone, but the lost and the unwanted keep attaching themselves to him: an aging Cherokee named Lone Watie, a young woman from the plains, a wagon of settlers. Eastwood plays a near-silent avenger who, against his own wishes, ends up with a family again. Chief Dan George brings dry humor to the trail while Sondra Locke brings warmth.
Eastwood took the director's chair himself and delivered one of the decade's most humane westerns: behind the gunfights sits a quiet argument about mercy and how wars actually end. The film was later added to the U.S. National Film Registry. Stream The Outlaw Josey Wales (1976) online on iFILM.
