McCabe And Mrs Miller (1971) - Robert Altman - Cinematic Flashback Podcast
In this episode of the Cinematic Flashback Podcast, Chuck and co-host Matt Sargent journey into the misty frontier of McCabe & Mrs. Miller (1971), directed by Robert Altman and starring Warren Beatty and Julie Christie. Far from your typical gunslinging western, Altman’s revisionist take paints a haunting portrait of ambition, capitalism, and isolation in a rugged Pacific Northwest town. Chuck and Matt break down the film’s dreamlike aesthetic, Leonard Cohen’s unforgettable soundtrack, and the understated brilliance of Beatty and Christie’s performances. They also explore how McCabe & Mrs. Miller fits into the wave of anti-westerns of the early '70s, Altman’s signature use of overlapping dialogue and naturalistic style, and whether its slow-burning melancholy still resonates today in the “Did It Groove or Lose Its Beat?” segment. Light a lantern and settle in for a quiet, snow-dusted classic that redefined what a western could be.
