The Preacher, answering Megan's wish. *Pale Rider was primarily filmed in the Boulder Mountains and the Sawtooth National Recreation Area in central Idaho, just north of Sun Valley in late 1984. The opening credits scene featured the jagged Sawtooth Mountains south of Stanley. Train-station scenes were filmed in Tuolumne County, California, near Jamestown.
@@rexoates3353 'Hail o hail o Infantry... Infantry life is the life for me'. Hey brother, I was also 11 Bush....with the 7th ID at Fort Ord, California(back when there still WAS a Fort Ord). 3/9 Manchus Bayonet! Clint Eastwood was mayor of nearby Carmel during those days. It really was the best time of my life. Just didn't know it at the time.
***** Thanks for your comments .This film epitomized and embraced the genre , but in a unique and very special way .As you point out , all the essential ingredients came together to form a masterpiece . Seasons Greetings and Best Wishes .
One day,Death rode in on a pale horse and all of Hell followed with him.Clint Eastwood is hands down one of the greatest male actors of all-time!Pale Rider is a great underrated movie!
Zangalwaal "Agreed- never seen an actor look as good as him on a horse." I think that every time I watch an Eastwood movie. He rides tall in the saddle and he seems to flow with the motion of the horse.
This movie and the movie Tombstone are probably my all time favorites. Clint Eastwood is one of a kind, and Wyatt Earp was the original Clint Eastwood. Both men brought the wrath of God on the cowboy gangs, one on the big screen, and one in real life.
Definitely a great film, and one of Eastwood's best. The biblical tie-ins are good, and it's a classic story. A little like Shane- the stranger helping the settlers.
I believe the horse is called a Roane. Dad said there was a herd of wild horses out west I think Nevada. the lead horse was the most magnificent horse he'd seen. It liked racing the semi's. Me and dad seen this in the movie theater when it came out.
I think this film (although a wee bit of a High Plains copy) is sort of underrated. There's a very young Chris Penn in this. About 5 or 6 years before RD.
I never ever forget this scene. It taught me that I could be this honest with God. Whether or not I am asking for the right things. No prayer seems to be as heard as that of an honest heart!
I love this classic gem of a Western masterpiece of Film so straight forward on the trail to help a town In need of a miracle from the prayer of half Indian half white young lady with the strength and courage of prayer and the stranger on a pale horse who came to the rescue from hell because of the fact that it follow him and what a great cast and director as well well peace everyone😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.
I agree. I can watch this movie fairly regularly and pick up things that I missed previously. Examples are facial expressions, background scenes, etc. Would have to be rated at equal to the best movies produced.
This is one of the most beautiful starts in American cinema. I only wished you had access to the beginning when the thugs are shown riding hard on screen before they kill Megyn's dog and alter her life and her community's life forever. Thank YOU SO MUCH for this gift!
The start was brilliant and all the rest for that matter :). I have access to the part you mentioned and will put it up in a month or 2. The trouble is the copyright owners do not accept/allow all uploads and YT sometimes will block and issue a strike against a channel. I will give it a go with a few other segments possibly soon.

Do you want something??? Then ask God. He hears the prayers of the poor. Miracles happen!!! Ask and you will receive seek and you will find. The secret gate
Raybon Dwayne Lepard; I did hear of this years ago, but had forgotten until you reminded me about it👍. He obviously has managed his horse fears well. He looks so good on a horse!
Nobody. Period. I’ve always tried to analyse what it is about the way he sits his horse that makes him look so good. His height? His posture? His hand/arm positioning? I haven’t quite figured it out yet
Revelation 19:11-16 The Rider on a White Horse 11 Then I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse! The one sitting on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he judges and makes war. 12 His eyes are like a flame of fire, and on his head are many diadems, and he has a name written that no one knows but himself. 13 He is clothed in a robe dipped in blood, and the name by which he is called is The Word of God. 14 And the armies of heaven, arrayed in fine linen, white and pure, were following him on white horses. 15 From his mouth comes a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations, and he will rule them with a rod of iron. He will tread the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God the Almighty. 16 On his robe and on his thigh he has a name written, King of kings and Lord of lords.
"He will tread the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God" = "He has trampled out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored." Never knew where those lyrics from Glory, Glory Hallelujah came from or what they meant. Thanks!!!!
It refers to Revelation 6:8: "And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth."
Honestly, the man rides well. He sits deep and correctly, his hands are relaxed and do NOT pull or balance on the horses mouth, his hips and back can swing easily with the horses movement, and his legs are loose and wrap around the barrel. This lovely grey will do correct flying changes every 3 strides without mr Eastwood upsetting the horses balance or cadence. To just sit still and do nothing is 3/4 the battle.
👌 Spot On. This Horse is well known to love being ridden and is not bothered about it. The horse is treated very well and is in a few of Clint's movies and others..
God, she was so gorgeously BEAUTIFUL back then. I remember thinking I'm honestly out of words looking at her and I wanted to kiss her as passionately I could... Oh girl, what were/are you doing to me... Sydney Penny in her teens and early twenties was the absolute loveliest of all of the girls an early teen version of me had during those days and still at 40 has ever seen in real life and on screen. Period. And what an actress as Megan here and as the young Meggie in Thorn Birds she was. ♥♥♥
That horse isn't an Andalusian. It has none of the typical heavier head and body features of that breed. It looks more like an Arabian cross to me. It has the lighter build and fine head features related to what an Arab or Arab cross would have.
+April Doornbos Nice, beatifull horse. The horse looks like it had a great personality. In fact it must have or i would imagine clint would not get on it. Any more info on the horse? Thanks
@@aprildoornbos4739 I have no doubt but when and why did Mr. Lucas get interested in either dressage trained or baroque horses? If this in fact an Andi and not an exceptional Arab.
Rusty Yates; True. Most people know that the horse is not white. A general term that is used. Facts about the horse's color: The Dapples on this horse are called 'Star Dapples'. He was born black and turned grey in a spectacular way.
@@worldfilmclips1 i d not believe most people realize that the horse isn't white. Regardless ,its a remake of Shane, with some slight changes. I remember Clint had not made a western in quite awhile at that time. He made a classic when he did! I would like to have seen more westerns from him after that, he had really blossomed as an actor and director by then. Unforgiven was the only other one if I'm not mistaken. Would like to have seen at least one or two more . He did go on to make some other other great movies though
Rusty Yates; Everyone is entitled to their opinion👍 but I disagree with that word 'remake' of Shane. What a lousy term to call Pale Rider. Clint said in a interview, (I believe from memory) that PR is a "Tribute" to Shane. A remake of Shane is false and downgrades PR. There're both 1st Class Movies in there own right👍.
@@worldfilmclips1 it was a tribute but with some changes, the basic story is a remake of shane. It has all of the basic elements. Different characters but the same. Shane is a former gunfighter who wants to leave that lifestyle behind. Puts away his guns. Befriends a family. The woman is secretly attracted to him but loves the simple man she is with and chooses him over the gunfighter. A little boy is impressed with shane and looks up to him. In pale rider, its a young girl who is infatuated with him. In both movies they chase after the gunfighter as he rides away yelling his name. In both movies though the plot is different, the good honest folks are trying to be run off by a corrupt powerful individual who wants their land. He uses his men and ultimately brings in hired guns to run them out ,Jack Palance in shane, John Russell in pale rider. The gunfighter is compelled to take out his guns and help the people. There is a scene thats almost identical, one of the farmers in shane has had enough of being intimidated and goes to town only to be confronted and goatee into a fight in the streets by the hired gun, only to be killed of course. I could go on and on with the examples. Every little thing isn't exactly the same but the basic plot and types of characters, qualifies it as a remake much like John Wayne did with Eldorado and another movie he did about 10 years later rio bravo or Rio lobo, the second movie name escapes me. Its a remake but with some slight changes.
@@worldfilmclips1 i would add that shane is in my opinion one of the greatest westerns if not movies of all time. I agree Pale Rider was an instant 1st class classic.
Yes it would be very nice indeed, regardless of the fact that there is NO Godly Spirit. Religion of all sorts is a Cult. Some cults however are better than others...
I don't like Pale Rider, and that horrible scene is one reason why: The "Peace Sign" grave marker, the faithless and irreverent prayer, the stunning ungratefulness of Meghan, the heavy handed biblical allusion to the Pale Horse of the Revelation. I think people like movies based on their own personal morality. All art reflects the zeitgeist of the times. The villains in older westerns had a greater morality than the anti-heroes of Revisionist and modern westerns. You're not learning about the frontier West from movies (and shouldn't be) you're being brainwashed with the director's morality. Eastwood movies tend to suffer from the High Noon effect: everybody in town is a wimp except Eastwood, which is Revisionism at its worst. John Wayne called this effect the most unamerican thing he'd ever seen. Frontier people were far from being wimpy, and had to be for obvious reasons. Then there's the lack of verisimilitude in the depiction of gold mining (in this case, placer mining) techniques, work ethic, and character of gold miners; its enough to make real placer miners, like myself, laugh. Which leads me to the contrived smashing the boulder scene which is either an homage to or total theft from Shane (where its a tree stump that symbolises the cooperation in removing the rancher). The device is used and reused in Shane to better effect. Then there's the wife And daughter falling in love with Eastwood. Where its platonic in the case of the boy in Shane and morally restrained in the case of the wife, its sexual in Pale Rider, which is a sign of the immoral and tawdry sixties. Then there's another ripoff from Shane at the end where Meghans declarations of love echo off the mountains---again, used to less effect. The director's advice seems to be: watch Shane, it's a far better movie, and my pick for Best Western ever.
@@BramHepburn You seem like you trivialize people's opinions by ascribing them to "having a bad day". No Sir, good day or bad, my critique of Pale Rider stands. BTW, everyone's not having a bad day---your chicken REALLY IS too dry.
Wrong the miners were shown to be stout hard working bit faced by a more powerful entity and armed as they really only had little to defend....I respect your opinion but it's off. This movie is accurate on so many levels. Family's God fearing To boot we're just like this. Working with There hands to make a simple life for themselves..Freed shown well from the other side... Overcoming often means outside influences. Eastwood just like in all of his movies shows true human nature all of it. Literally the Good bad and ugly of what's inside us all Realistic true to nature, Eastwood is one of the the Best story tellers of all time and this great classic Defines that Well. John Wayne far from a saint isn't the best person to speak of when Eastwood is his supior. The Duke will always be the Duke but Eastwood is Kinh
Michael Tester; Nice post and good to read that you went "easy" on John Wayne👍. Some I believe, unjustifiably criticise him, fortunately most don't. Only thing I lightly disagree about is that Clint is his superior. Different eras, styles. I used to love watching Wayne's movies on the weekends in the 60's... Nice final sentence of yours "The Duke will always be the Duke but Eastwood is Kinh" 👍.
@@worldfilmclips1 yeah Wayne I've watched everything he did loved them all, he was the biggest of his era and still to me second only to Eastwood to me. Eastwood Though has done more not just staring but Directing so many epics as well..Wish could have seen them Both in a movie together

This has got to be THE MOST BADASS introduction to Clint Eastwood’s character I’ve ever seen in a western film!... And Hell followed with him...

My favourite Eastwood movie of all time.I saw it on release , bought it on all formats , and never tire of watching it .Simply
excellent !!!!
WILLIAM SIMS I agree 100%. Pale Rider would in my opinion rate as #1 of Clint's movies. It has it all - Cast, Storyline and the Location.

David Farmer; No, can't turn back time. There is only 1 Clint! No-one comes anywhere near his 'Class' nowadays☹️
Back when they knew how to make movies. This horse completely rocks.

@@williamkaloostian7522 De Niro would disagree.
@@Sven_E07 so would Pacino let alone Olivier. I love Eastwood's films but he isn't even in the same league as Olivier or Gielgud.
Too many many male actors to say any are the best! 'On Par'/equal would be a better term. I also think you've forgotten Charles Bronson!

Eastwood was one of the few stars who really knew how to ride a horse. Beautiful!
@jim....beautiful horse, too. I wonder if its his? he really can handle it.
Especially considering he was allergic to horses...not sure how he survived all those westerns but glad he did!
Agreed- never seen an actor look as good as him on a horse.

Can't believe this movie is 39 years old ...A classic
Amazing scene. Sends chills every time I see it.

"We all love you preacher" "I love you" Megan did show gratefulness.
This horse and Clint are like the perfect match - strange thing is he did not mock the gospel but rather explains the gospel in a Western movie !
How much of Pale Riders greatness lies in its simplicity?
I like this scene. brought so much to the film
Definitely a great film, and one of Eastwood's best. The biblical tie-ins are good, and it's a classic story. A little like Shane- the stranger helping the settlers.

Then there's another ripoff from Shane at the end where Meghans declarations of love echo off the mountains---again, used to less effect. The director's advice seems to be: watch Shane, it's a far better movie, and my pick for Best Western ever.
You seem like you're having a bad day
@@BramHepburn You seem like you trivialize people's opinions by ascribing them to "having a bad day". No Sir, good day or bad, my critique of Pale Rider stands. BTW, everyone's not having a bad day---your chicken REALLY IS too dry.
Wrong the miners were shown to be stout hard working bit faced by a more powerful entity and armed as they really only had little to defend....I respect your opinion but it's off. This movie is accurate on so many levels. Family's God fearing To boot we're just like this. Working with There hands to make a simple life for themselves..Freed shown well from the other side... Overcoming often means outside influences. Eastwood just like in all of his movies shows true human nature all of it. Literally the Good bad and ugly of what's inside us all
Realistic true to nature, Eastwood is one of the the Best story tellers of all time and this great classic Defines that Well. John Wayne far from a saint isn't the best person to speak of when Eastwood is his supior. The Duke will always be the Duke but Eastwood is Kinh
Michael Tester; Nice post and good to read that you went "easy" on John Wayne👍. Some I believe, unjustifiably criticise him, fortunately most don't. Only thing I lightly disagree about is that Clint is his superior. Different eras, styles. I used to love watching Wayne's movies on the weekends in the 60's... Nice final sentence of yours "The Duke will always be the Duke but Eastwood is Kinh" 👍.
@@worldfilmclips1 yeah Wayne I've watched everything he did loved them all, he was the biggest of his era and still to me second only to Eastwood to me. Eastwood Though has done more not just staring but Directing so many epics as well..Wish could have seen them Both in a movie together
