Joe Kidd (1972)
7/10
Enjoyable Eastwood Western

What isnt clear is what "Joe Kidd" does or did for an occupation, as hes in prison at the opening of the film, hired by Robert Duvall who turns out to be quite nasty-hes out to get Luis Chama (played by John Saxon). The general plot appears to be that mexicans have had their land taken by corrupt and dishonest folk and they have more funds than the mexicans. I found the film enjoyable-especially trying to work out how Joe Kidd was going to rescue a village of innocent mexicans from being murdered in cold blood by Duvall and his vile band. How he achieves his goal is well done and makes for an entertaining film but NOT suitable for younger viewers. My review is done just after the film finished via freeview - late afternoon!
