Summary Tonight's programme is the first full-length portrait of controversial director Sam Peckinpah who died in 1984. His films included The Getaway and Straw Dogs, but he was most closely identified with westerns like The Wild Bunch, Ride the High Country, Guns in the Afternoon, and Pat Garrett. Combining the intensely violent with the deeply elegiac, Peckinpah did more than anyone to dramatise the death of the west. Actors Kris Kristofferson, James Coburn, Ali MacGraw, Jason Robards and other collaborators reflect on working with this unique maverick.
