Pale Rider

Director/star Clint Eastwood returns to the western as a mysterious stranger who helps the settlers of a small mining town overcome the oppression of a ruthless gold baron. Wearing a priest’s collar and oddly half-remembered by many of the town’s residents, Eastwood’s stoic avenger--known only as "Preacher"--is seen by some as a savior who may be more than just a man. Michael Moriarty, Carrie Snodgress, Sydney Penny, Chris Penn co-star. 116 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital 5.1; Subtitles: English, French, Spanish; theatrical trailers.
