A new poster is revealed for Dead for a Dollar, the Western film by the director of Walter Hill directed the pilot of the Deadwood series, for which he won a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Directing for a Drama Series. He's also directed several other westerns including The Long Riders, Geronimo, and Wild Bill.
Quiver Distribution reveals a new poster for Dead for a Dollar featuring stars Rachel Brosnahan, Willem Dafoe, Christoph Waltz, and Brandon Scott. The film follows bounty hunter Max Borlund (Waltz) as he searches for a woman named Rachel (Brosnahan) who he believes to be kidnaped by Elijah Jones (Scott), when in fact the two are lovers and Rachel is hiding from her abusive husband. Dafoe plays an outlaw named Joe Cribbens whom Borlund sent to prison years earlier. The Dead for a Dollar poster can be viewed below:
The film's stacked cast and veteran director offers promise for a Western likely to hold the attention of viewers. The tagline "Vengeance for the right price" is also intriguing, likely a reference to Borlund and Cribbens' combative relationship. Although the brief plot summary of the movie might feel familiar, the performances and direction behind Dead for a Dollar may allow the story to be executed in a way that is still satisfying and memorable. Dead for a Dollar releases in theaters on September 30, so it will become clear then if the film has some exciting twists in its back pocket.
