More about the book
Peckinpah: The Western Films, first published when the director's reputation was at low ebb, helped lead a generation of readers and filmgoers to a full and enduring appreciation of Peckinpah's landmark films. This expanded, revised edition includes a new section on the personal significance of The Wild Bunch to Peckinpah as well as a complete account of the successful, but troubled, efforts to get a fully authorized director's cut released. Seydor also adds a great wealth of biographical detail that has surfaced since the director's death and includes a new chapter on Noon Wine, credited with bringing Peckinpah's television work to a fitting resolution and preparing his way for The Wild Bunch.
