American moviegoers have long turned to the Hollywood
Western for reassurance in times of crisis. During the
L genre’s heyday, the films of John Ford, Howard Hawks
and Henry Hathaway reflected a grand patriotism that resonated
with audiences at the end of World War II. The tried-and-true
Western was questioned by Ford and George Stevens during the
Cold War, and in the 1960s directors like Sam Peckinpah and
George Roy Hill retooled the genre as a commentary on American
ethics during the Vietnam War.
Between the mid-1970s and early 1990s, the Western faded
from view—until the Gulf War, when Kevin Costner’s Dances with
Wolves (1990) and Clint Eastwood’s Unforgiven (1992) brought it
back, with moral complexities. Since 9/11, the Western has seen a
resurgence, blending its patriotic narrative with criticism of
America’s pi ace in the global community. Exploring such films as
True Grit (2010) and Brokeback Mountain (2005), along with
television series like Deadwood and Firefly, this collection of new
essays explores how the Western today captures the dichotomy of
our times and remains important to the American psyche.
