Pale Rider (1985) Neon

If The Power of the Dog gives you a taste for moody, stylish Westerns, head straight over to Neon for Clint Eastwood’s 1980s highlight, Pale Rider. Made at a time when the genre was possibly even more out of fashion than it is now, Eastwood’s religion-drenched tale of a mysterious preacher who rides into town and tries to save it from a greedy mining company stands up as a solid and singular genre example.
