“THE WILD BUNCH scares me; it has always scared me. It scared me when it originally played at the Omaha Theater downtown and no one would take me to see it because it was too violent… It still scares and intimidates me every time I see it—at least once a year—not only for its violence, the moral ambiguity of its world, and the way men are portrayed—Am I a man, too?—but for the sheer virtuosity of its filmmaking. How could one ever make a film this good? Sam Peckinpah scares me.” (Alexander Payne)
