Lonely are the Brave

"One of Kirk Douglas's most introspective and affecting Westerns, ""Lonely Are the Brave"" casts the film icon as a rough renegade cowboy whose individualistic ways are out of sync with the times in modern-day New Mexico. A thought provoking, powerful drama that eulogizes the death of the West as it succumbs to modernity and codes of law. Co-starring Academy Award-winners Walter Mathau and George Kennedy, and Academy Award-nominee Gena Rowlands. Adapted by Dalton Trumbo from Edward Abbey's novel Brave Cowboy."
