Unforgiven
William Munny (Clint Eastwood), a dirt-poor hog farmer from Kansas, was once the scourge of the West who left a string of corpses in the country. He comes out of retirement to hunt down two cowboys with a price on their heads. His employers are a group of prostitutes. Munny teams up with his old partner Ned Logan (Morgan Freeman) and with a young man called The Schofield Kid (Jaimz Woolvett).
Their first stop is the little town Big Whisky. But another bounty hunter, English Bob (Richard Harris), accompanied by journalist, W.W. Beauchamp (Saul Rubinek), beats them to town. Sheriff Little Bill (Gene Hackman), once a lawbreaker himself, puts a vicious end to Bob's plans. That leaves Beauchamp to rely on Daggett for inspiration before Munny arrives for the day of reckoning.

Quote:
Will Munny: I ain't like that no more. I ain't the same, Ned. Claudia, she straightened me up, cleared me of drinkin' whiskey and all. Just 'cause we're goin' on this killing, that don't mean I'm gonna go back to bein' the way I was. I just need the money, get a new start for them youngsters. Ned, you remember that drover I shot through the mouth and his teeth came out the back of his head? I think about him now and again. He didn't do anything to deserve to get shot, at least nothin' I could remember when I sobered up. Ned Logan: You were crazy, Will. Will Munny: Yeah, no one liked me. Mountain boys all thought I was gonna shoot 'em out of pure meanness. Ned Logan: Well, like I said, you ain't like that no more. Will Munny: That's right. I'm just a fella now. I ain't no different than anyone else no more.
