5.0 out of 5 stars I love this boxset.... 28 Sep 2006
Format:DVD
...it's great; best western movies ever, from director Sam Peckinpah in one box. Includes: 2 Disc Special Editions of "The Wild Bunch" and "Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid"( which has two versions) and single disc editions of "The Ballad of Cable Hogue" and "Ride the High Country." Box set is filled with good extras ( such as documentaries, featurettes, trailers and audio commentaries for each movie); there is something on each disc to explore. Buy!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Ballad of Cable Hogue 20 Feb 2007
Format:DVD
I first saw this western on the TV several years ago and since then I have been trying to find a copy. It's a slighty off beat western with both humour and pathos. The song "Butterfly Morning" sung by Stella Stevens and Jason Robards togeter with the film images that accompany it can only be described as beautiful.

Jason Robards performace is outstanding portraying the character with both charm and honesty, Stella Stevens is bewitching as the whore with a heart, David Hemmings as the randy preacher is superb. In fact all the casting is outstanding.

Buy it and I'm sure like me you'll watch it over and over again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Boxset Of One Of The Best Directors Ever! 28 July 2006
Format:DVD
Wow this is a great price for some of the best Westerns made, Sam Peckinpah was a geat Director & this Boxset is Proof of that, Ride The High Country is 1 of the best Old Westerns with 2 great turns form Scott & McCrea. The Wild Bunch, so much as been said about film dont know what to say, just the BEST Western ever! The Ballard Of Cable Hogue is lovely little unseen {shame} film with a nice little turn from Jason Robards and a change of mood for Peckinpah. Pat Garrett And Billy The Kid is James Coburns best film & a real Gem for fans, with the 2 versions of the film, the new 1 with the missing Garrett/wife home scene & a few cuts here & there, Im still very glad that you have the Turner Preview as well, i think its just a little better. All in all NO Western fan should be without this Set

Sam

We enjoyed this film - I am very fond of Westerns and this kept my interest all the way through. I don't know why it did not have a bigger release when first made.

A good western requires a a good plot, plausible characters, a certain amount of suspense, and a restraint in the use of bullets and blood. Read more
