Junior Bonner (1972)
Country: US
Technical: col/scope 105m
Director: Sam Peckinpah

Synopsis:
A fading rodeo star returns to Prescott, Arizona years after walking out on his family for a life on the road, and picks up with his folks, equally divided by the dream and the reality of life for the modern cowboy.
Review:
That rare beast: a gentle Peckinpah film, though with his cherished themes still in evidence. The character of the loose-footed, womanizing and drinking cowboy finds its contemporary incarnation in McQueen's Junior, an astute piece of casting.
