Brilliant movie from 1976 year, a classic Adventure movie. The Shootist is a great lesson in movie making for all the newbie directors. It is not just "some" movie, it has an eternal message. The Shootist has one of the highest ranks in IMDB top movies. Don Siegel is the person responsible for making a lot of good work with brilliant writing and amazing cinematography. Artistry of actors are just magnificent, no one give bad performance. The Shootist has strange energy that fills me every time I watch it. The Shootist is definitely in my top 3 of Adventure movies. You just have to see it.

The movie follows J.B. Books, an aging gunfighter diagnosed with cancer who comes to Nevada at the turn of the 20th century to spend his last days looking for a way to die with a minimum of pain and a maximum of dignity.
