Soldier, Indian tracker, lawman, outlaw, hired killer - there are about a half dozen movies that could be made about Tom Horn, so it's surprising that it wasn't until the Western was on its last legs that, aside from the odd fleeting appearance in B-movies, he finally made it to the big screen. In some ways it's amazing he made it at all. 1980's Tom Horn was a troubled picture, and that's putting it mildly. Sam Peckinpah was at one time tapped to direct, but he fell out with star and producer Steve McQueen before shooting started - possibly literally, since McQueen's alleged response to a furious argument they had in the car one evening led to McQueen insisting he get out without bothering to stop first. Neither Don Siegel nor Elliot Silverstein made it past pre-production. Electra Glide in Blue director James Guercio only lasted for the first three days of the shoot, and cinematographer John Alonzo and McQueen himself also had a hand in the finished film at one point or another, with credited director William Wiard apparently hired only to placate the Directors Guild when they wouldn't allow the star to direct himself. The screenplay went through many changes along the route as well, with Thomas McGuane's 450-page epic being constantly chipped away, Abraham Polonsky's rewrite being rejected and Bud Shrake's final script eventually alternating with McGuane's depending on which version the star felt like filming that day. And just to add to the good news, the picture suffered from major budget cuts due to studio politics and the threat of a William Goldman-scripted Robert Redford rival project (eventually made for TV with David Carradine as Mr Horn), shrinking from a three-hour $10m epic about the Indian tracker and interpreter's life to a $3m small-scale Western about its ignominious end.Read more ›

McQueen in my view gives one of his best performances in this film as the legendary character Tom Horn. He was a success in a time where his values fit in, but as time marches on, Horn cannot change and his violent methods rebound on him. You feel a sense of inevitability throughout the film as it draws to it's conclusion. This mirrors McQueen's own inevitable demise in the same year this film was released.

The action sequences feel real. The supporting characters are well drawn and the scenery is superb, although the desolateness of the landscape adds to the feeling of impending doom. I have a small collection of westerns that from time to time I will dip into and this is a welcome addition. Recommended viewing for McQueen fans, Western fans and as a slice of (only partially altered) history. Or just a good yarn. It works on a lot of levels and can truly be called a classic.

One of the early attempts a a realistic approach to the West. Steve McQueen is a natural for the part of Tom Horn and plays it down well.

steve mcq is good as the honest if not to bright tom horn used then abused by the cattlemen who hired him.wether he was framed or not tom did kill or was connected with people dying in his life as scout pinkerton man and so on.this is mcqs penultimate film the hunter being his last i feel this is the better of the 2 but he looks ill and the scene were he trys to escape by running away is painful to watch he had and was dying of cancer at the time.he was offered the martin sheen role in apocalypse now now that would have been interesting.good picture.2.35.1 screen ratio.but this has been cut by the bbfc for horsefalls only by a few seconds.so if u are a completist buy the r1 version.otherwise dose not spoil the film to much.any body not sure about cuts to films check the bbfc website before buying.

A true story of the changing times in the west, although many men were finding it hard to understand the new laws and how to abide properly to them. This was the dillemma faced by Tom horn when he took the job of law man for the county's cattle men's association. It all ends badly for this western old timer.
