   If you forced me to make a list of my ten favorite movies of all time, of any genre, The Wild Bunch would be on it. So yes. I love a great many westerns, plenty of which would be predictable and others that might be sort of out there. But more days than not this would be the first one I'd mention.

   Is 'the Wild Bunch' a good movie?

   • It’s one of those movies that gets better every time you see it, no matter how many times you see it. The Western never felt quite the same after The Wild Bunch. Paul Schrader once described Touch of Evil as film noir’s epitaph, and the same can be said for The Wild Bunch and the Western.

   Is the Wild Bunch a war?

   • It is not a war that would have meaning within his intensely individual frame of reference; he knows loyalty to his bunch, and senses it is the end of his era. The video versions of “The Wild Bunch,” restored to its original running time of 144 minutes, include several scenes not widely seen since the movie had its world premiere in 1969.

   Was 'the Wild Bunch' a apoplectic shock?

   • Audience comments cards from 1969 test screenings of The Wild Bunch didn’t merely express displeasure; they conveyed apoplectic shock. “This movie was TOO DAMNED BLOODY,” read one, proving that all-caps was a thing well before email and Twitter arrived. “No story, just gore, filthy, repulsive = blood, blood, blood!” read another.

   Was Peckinpah a Wild Bunch?

   • Peckinpah possibly identified with the wild bunch. Like them, he was an obsolete, violent, hard-drinking misfit with his own code, and did not fit easily into the new world of automobiles, and Hollywood studios.

   Dec 4, 2016 · Simultaneously gruesome and strangely romantic, Peckinpah chooses for the first images of the film to be a group of wide-eyed children torturing ants and scorpions as the U.S. Army rides into town. Of course, it’s not the army, it’s the Bunch, gunning for the bank and bloodshed that will follow.
