Universal Westerns at MoMA

MoMA gallops into summer with "Universal Westerns," a monthlong screening series running June 5–July 3 that traces the evolution of the Hollywood Western through classics, cult favorites and restored gems from the Universal archive. The lineup spans silent-era John Ford collaborations, Anthony Mann and James Stewart’s psychologically charged takes, Clint Eastwood vehicles and late-period revisionist elegies like The Hired Hand and The Beguiled. For film nerds and cowboy obsessives alike, it’s a rare chance to see the genre’s sweeping history unfold on the big screen.
