"If anyone's going to bring in Albert Johnson, it's going to be me - not some bounty hunter or some flyboy buckin' for promotion."

Loosely based on a true story of a manhunt that took place in Depression-era Canada, Death Hunt denotes the ambitious re-teaming of two of cinema's most manly actors - Charles Bronson and Lee Marvin (they previously appeared together in The Dirty Dozen).... read more

Description: In 1931, Albert Johnson killed a man in self-defense, but Sgt. Edgar Millen brought a posse to arrest him for murder. IN the brutal siege following, Johnson killed four more men before escaping into the mountains. Millen pursued Johnson chase that would take both men from the brink of survival to the edge of vengeance. All that protects a man falsely accused of murder from a police force determined to catch him, is his own superior knowledge of the mountainous wilderness where he's hiding out. A powerful and exciting thriller based on a true story. A long and exhaustive manhunt pits two remarkable men against each other. ... (more)

"5.6. Miehiset miehet miehistelevät miehisin keinoin miehisissä olosuhteissa. Eräät "miehiset" koiratappeluja järjestävät miehet ajautuvat ongelmiin miehisemmän, mutta oikeamieliseltä tuntuvan miehen kanssa, joka ei eläinrääkkääjämiehiä pelkää. Miehisyyden aiheuttamat kunniakysymykset eskaloituvat yhä miehisempiin pyssyleikkeihin, kunnes kunniakkaan miehisyyden perikuva Lee Marvinin esittämän sheriffin ominaisuudessa liittyy kekkereihin mukaan. Tästä eteenpäin tarina kert"
