Contemporary Westerns
Westerns have enjoyed a renaissance in recent years. Darker and more cynical in tone, these contemporary takes on the genre tend to be more meditative and focus on the lawlessness of the era, favouring realism over romanticism. Enjoy the grit, the gunfights and, as ever, breathtaking landscapes.
