   The Naked Spur (1953)

   This week we’re back in a America for a pivotal 1950’s technicolor Western. Jimmy Stewart is absolutely unhinged in this smart, cynical western from genre maestro Anthony Mann. Mythologies are upended, post-war trauma is explored, and the Rocky Mountains have never looked rockier! Is this your favorite of the Mann/Stewart westerns?

   Massacre Time (1966)

   This week we travel across the sea to Italy for some Spaghetti! Genre legend Lucio Fulci directs this blood and sand Italian western. We chat about the origins of Spaghetti Westerns, connections to Django Unchained, and Fulci's penchant for punching us all in the gut. Enjoy!

   Canyon Passage (1946)

   Welcome to the pod! This week's Western features a performance from 40's stalwart Dana Andrews and a surprising directing turn from the king of RKO horror Jacques Tourneur. This sweeping story balances pastoral romanticism with involving adventure scenes and surprisingly dark undercurrents. Twitter: @Saddleupcinema Letterboxd: NeilAnderson (orange pic)
