## Resource

This week we look at a classic western directed by Clint Eastwood. The lines of "right" and "wrong" are blurred, the "romantic view" of the old West is tossed out for a more "earthy" and realistic view of what people truly had to face. And in the midst of it all, a writer trying to capture and maintain the "romance" of the West instead of the reality.
