Review 4K Movie

After the death of his wife and son, peaceful former farmer Josie Wales exchanges his plow for a revolver. Driven by revenge, he joins a gang fighting on the side of the South. But even after the war, he does not lay down his arms, because Josie can no longer “just go home”. Now Wales is a loner, hunted by the authorities, assassins and ordinary gangsters of all stripes. Josie sets off on a long journey, picking up on the road a variety of poor people.

Josie Wales is a fundamentally different character than 'The Man With No Name' or Dirty Harry. Yes, he wants revenge. But gradually, sympathy is born in him. Josie is tired of the violence he sees at every turn, meets at every corner. Therefore, by the middle of the movie, the revenge motive becomes weaker and recalls itself only in the finale.

Wales is cruel not because he likes it. No! He just wants to survive and protect whoever is around him. And at the first opportunity he turns from the Road of Death to the Road of Life.

The prototype of Josie Wales was a folk hero of a number of counties in the state of Missouri Bill Wilson. Another western hero, Fletcher, is based on Captain Dave Poole, who helped federal authorities persuade guerrillas to surrender their weapons.
