Magnificent Seven
Paul Williams, series curator
Magnificent Seven is a 1960's reimagining of the 1954 Kurosawa classic, The Seven Samurai. In this updated version, a rag-tag bunch of seven men are hired to guard a small Mexican village that is periodically plundered by a band of renegade bandits. When the seven are hired, they go to the town, befriend the villagers, and teach them how to defend themselves. But when the bandits launch their fiercest attack yet, the seven must make a decision – save their own lives, or the ones of the villagers they’ve been hired to protect.
