Let’s unpack this cinematic genre and discover how deeply it is rooted in our psyches. </h2> <p>On the one hand, the Western, in its simplest expression, is one of the purest forms of American cinema. Soon after the American Civil War, the country began its largest period of expansion, as people rushed to fill what they saw as “uninhabited” land. This westward spread was buoyed by the befuddled idea of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manifest_destiny" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Manifest Destiny</a> (the notion that “we’ve got to go over there and stick a flag in it because God told us to”), and for rest of the 19th century, Americans rushed to fill this vast, uncivilized land. The peoples that were already living there? Well, they were getting in the way of the spread of American ingenuity and commerce. </p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Westward, Ho!</h2> <p>The West was to be tamed, you see, and the only law that mattered was the law of the mighty. The American hero was a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knight-errant" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">knight-errant</a>, a privileged warrior who, with his horse and his rifle, had been tasked with a divine duty to protect the women-folk, defend the newly fenced-in ranchlands, and drive off those murdering interlopers (the, uh, actual natives). </p> <p>This was the narrative that informed a series of traveling sideshows, most notably <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffalo_Bill" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Buffalo Bill</a>’s <em><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffalo_Bill#Buffalo_Bill's_Wild_West" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Wild West Show</a></em>. These shows toured the established portion of the nascent United States, reiterating the newfound myths of the frontier. In fact, Buffalo Bill’s show was captured on film in 1904 by <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Edison" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Thomas Edison</a> and his team while they were <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetoscope" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">exploring ways to create “motion pictures.</a>” </p> <p>Edison and his ilk were introducing all sorts of new-fangled technology to society, which folks found both fascinating and terrifying. This industrial “moderization” was oppressive, and they felt constricted and trapped within the new paradigm of urban living. In contrast, the vast emptiness of the American West was, in a word, freedom. Some of the technologies filling their lives with noise and smoke were, in fact, means by which they could escape, by which they could vanish into the mythology of the West. </p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Bright-Eyed Adventurer</h2> <p>This brings us to the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edisonade" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Edisonade</a>, a genre of pulp fiction that featured a quirky inventor and his magnificent inventors. Together, they have adventures. The genre came out of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_romance" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">scientific romances</a> of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victorian_era" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Victorian era</a>, and would later find itself spackled into the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_US_science_fiction_and_fantasy_magazines_to_1950" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">pulp foundations of science fiction</a>. One of the earliest examples of this genre is Edward S. Ellis’s “<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Steam_Man_of_the_Prairies" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Steam Man of the Prairies</a>,” published in 1868. It’s the tale of a young man with his—wait for it—steam engine that allowed him to chug-a-chug to various adventures in this mythological West. </p> <p>130 years later, we have <a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000226" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Will Smith</a> and <a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000177" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kevin Kline</a> fighting a diabolical Confederate scientist with a penchant for steampunking giant arachnids that spew jets of flame in <a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001756/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Barry Sonnenfeld</a>‘s <em><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120891" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Wild Wild West</a></em>. <em>Plus ça change</em>, as they say. </p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="800" height="320" src="https://www.videvo.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/wildwild.jpg" alt="The Wild Wild West" class="wp-image-44191" srcset="https://www.videvo.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/wildwild.jpg 800w, https://www.videvo.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/wildwild-300x120.jpg 300w, https://www.videvo.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/wildwild-768x307.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><em>The steampunk West that time forgot, from Barry Sonnenfeld’s remake of the iconic TV series, </em><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0058855" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Wild Wild West</a><em> (image courtesy of <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120891" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Peters Entertainment</a>). </em></figcaption></figure> <p>American cinema in the mid-20th century perfected the essential format of the Western: a man, a horse, a rifle, and folks in need of justice. Directors like <a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000406" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">John Ford</a>,<a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0836328" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> John Sturges</a>, <a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0202681" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Delmar Daves</a>, and <a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0002087" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Samuel Fuller</a> were in high demand during a period known as the “Golden Age of the Western,” which ran until the early 1960s. Actors like <a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000078/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">John Wayne</a>, <a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000011" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Gary Cooper,</a> and <a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0662240" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Fess Parker</a> became iconic heroes with their laconic drawls, Stetson hats, and fur caps. </p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Unspooling the Spaghetti</h2> <p>In Italy, <a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001466/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Sergio Leone</a> embraced the cinematic wide-screen vistas of the American West, and over the course of three films starring a stoic, steely-eyed American, both deconstructed and elevated the mythology of the genre. Leone’s films, shot in Italy and usually dubbed into English (the crews were a mix of European and American actors), became international hits and helped spawn an entire sub-genre (the “Spaghetti Western”). </p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img decoding="async" width="800" height="320" src="https://www.videvo.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/eastwood.jpg" alt="The Good, The Bad and The Ugly" class="wp-image-44195" srcset="https://www.videvo.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/eastwood.jpg 800w, https://www.videvo.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/eastwood-300x120.jpg 300w, https://www.videvo.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/eastwood-768x307.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><em>Clint Eastwood’s “Blondie,” the nameless hero who came to epitomize the Western protagonist, in Sergio Leone’s </em><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0060196" target="_blank" data-type="link" data-id="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0060196" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Good, The Bad and the Ugly</a><em> (image courtesy of <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0060196" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Produzioni Europee Associate</a>). </em></figcaption></figure> <p>Leone’s go-to actor was a young fellow who had gotten his start on <em><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0052504/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Rawhide</a></em>, an American TV western. He and <a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000142" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Clint Eastwood</a> did three films together: <em><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0058461" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">A Fistful of Dollars</a></em> in 1964, <em><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0059578" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">For a Few Dollars More</a></em> (1965), and <em><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0060196" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Good, the Bad and the Ugly</a></em> (1966). While Leone only did one more Western (<em><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0064116/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Once Upon a Time in the West</a></em>), Eastwood went on to do a number of memorable westerns, including <em><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0068699/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">High Plains Drifter</a></em> (his first time in the director’s chair, in 1973), <em><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0075029/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Outlaw Josey Wales</a></em>, <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0089767" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><em>Pale Rider</em></a>, and <em><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105695/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Unforgiven</a></em>, his Academy Award winning deconstruction of his own career in the Western genre. </p> <p><a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001603/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Sam Peckinpah</a>, who had done a few Westerns himself, took Leone’s demystification of the Western one step further with <em><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0065214" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Wild Bunch</a></em>, a film that did away with the doe-eyed filter of the American Individualism and showed us how bloody and lawless the frontier could be. </p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img decoding="async" width="800" height="320" src="https://www.videvo.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/hat.jpg" alt="Unforgiven" class="wp-image-44196" srcset="https://www.videvo.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/hat.jpg 800w, https://www.videvo.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/hat-300x120.jpg 300w, https://www.videvo.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/hat-768x307.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><em>Clint Eastwood’s Will Munny offers the steely-eyed stare of the indefatigable law-bringer in <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105695/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Unforgiven</a> (image courtesy of <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105695/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Warner Bros</a>). </em></figcaption></figure> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Myth of the Lone Hero</h2> <p>Eastwood is also known for the character of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirty_Harry_(character)" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Harry Callahan</a>, a granite-chewing San Francisco police officer who, much like the unflappable heroes in Westerns, was prone to taking the law into his own hands. The first film starring Callahan was <em><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0066999/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Dirty Harry</a></em>, and it is widely seen as inaugurating the “loose-cannon cop” sub-genre, which, in a way, is basically a Western (single individual takes the law into their own hands in service of a community that cannot protect itself against Evil) set in a urban setting. </p> <p>And herein lies the trap of the Western. It was certainly a staple of early cinema, especially given the broad reach of Hollywood throughout the 20th century, but that same wide availablity and broad representation of a specific historical and cultural milieu ignores how the underlying elements of this genre found expression in other cultures. </p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Romance of the West</h2> <p>As we mentioned above, the gunslinger hero is an Americanized version of the knight from the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chivalric_romance" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">chivalric romances</a> of the Middle Ages or the wandering <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rōnin" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ronin</a> from Japanese history. One of <a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000041" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Akira Kirosawa</a>’s most enduring films is <em><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0047478" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Seven Samurai</a></em> (1954), the story of seven swordsmen who are hired to protect a beleaguered village from marauding raiders. It would be remade by <a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0836328" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">John Sturges</a> in 1960—at the tail end of the Golden Age of the American Western—as <em><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0054047/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Magnificent Seven</a></em> (and would be remade again in 2016 by <a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0298807" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Antoine Fuqua</a>). </p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="320" src="https://www.videvo.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/magseven.jpg" alt="The Magnificent Seven" class="wp-image-44192" srcset="https://www.videvo.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/magseven.jpg 800w, https://www.videvo.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/magseven-300x120.jpg 300w, https://www.videvo.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/magseven-768x307.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><em>2016’s remake of </em><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2404435" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Magnificent Seven</a><em> collects a wide array of character types (image courtesy of MGM). </em></figcaption></figure> <p>Why seven?
