High Plains Drifter is a 1973 Western about a mysterious gunslinger who helps residents in a small mining down prepare for the onslaught of three vengeful ex-convicts. Directed by and starring Clint Eastwood, the movie was directly influenced by the Spaghetti Westerns of Sergio Leone (especially the "Man with No Name" trilogy that Eastwood starred in). The movie is much darker in tone that many of the other westerns of the day and contains many biblical references.
