Pale Rider. Directed by Clint Eastwood, starring Clint Eastwood, Michael Moriarty, Carrie Snodgress, Christopher Penn, and John Russell. 1985.
Eastwood’s spooky savior wears a clerical collar and answers to “Preacher,” but he spouts more bullets than gospel in a nearly scene-for-scene plagiarism of Shane, with a heavy overlay of his earlier High Plains Drifter. Former Lawman star Russell is hypnotic in his last role, but it’s a dreary film and misses all the subtlety of its inspiration.
