Josey Wales. Keep It Simple. Make It Great.

Clint Eastwood has proved over and over that a great story, simply told, is still the best way to connect with an audience. With The Outlaw Josey Wales, Eastwood keeps the central story simple and draws you in with the little stuff.  This is, after all, a revenge movie, top to bottom.  Once that gets set up, Eastwood simply lets you enjoy a ton of great stuff - like amazing action sequences.  Crisp, beautifully framed cinematography.  Razor sharp editing that keeps the story headed in one direction and doesn't waste a single frame getting there.  All of which is why Josey Wales is a 191 Movie - one you want to keep handy.
