Plots(1)
Clint Eastwood and Morgan Freeman play retired, down-on-their-luck outlaws who pick up their guns one last time to collect a bounty offered by the vengeful prostitutes of the remote Wyoming town of Big Whiskey. Richard Harris is an ill-fated interloper, a colorful killer-for-hire called English Bob. And Gene Hackman is the sly and brutal local sheriff whose brand of law enforcement ranges from unconventional to ruthless. (official distributor synopsis)
