Western of the Week – The Hired Hand

For those of you who love Westerns (and who doesn’t?), here’s today’s Western of the Week – The Hired Hand.

Starring Peter Fonda, Warren Oates, and Verna Bloom. Here’s how the IMDB describes the film’s plot – “Peter Fonda is riding again… To the woman he lost … for the revenge he craves!” But don’t that fool you; this is a Western’s Western, complete with a temporality that would cause delirious tremens in even the most composed Spaghetti Western Director.

An added feature is the film’s dastardly good sound track, composed and played by Bruce Langhorne. You’ll remember him from his days as a side-man for a young Bob Dylan – from whence he got his nick name: Mr. Tamborine Man.

Saddle up the palomino!
