of Gold, USA,
2009, Western 92min HD
EFM
screening February 18 9:00 am MARIOTT 3
- Ecstasy of Gold is a sharp shooting, gun
slinging, stylized western
exploring the sometimes hilarious intersection of lust, greed and
money. Butch (John Elliot) is a bounty hunter who just wants to get
paid an honest amount for an honest day's work; his chattel, morally
corrupt Rattler Fenton just wants to cash in on his well hidden and
–
to hear him tell it – hard won gold. As Butch navigates an
increasingly
magical West in search of payment
he is joined by a quirky band of outcasts and outlaws
–including
beautiful, ferocious Akemi (Narisa Suzuki) - and terrorized by the
entirely evil but not entirely human Mondego gang. Good and Evil
collide, as both heroes and villains alike are enthralled by the
Ecstasy of Gold
