Clint Eastwood’s High Plains Drifter Returns

The 1973 American Western classic, High Plains Drifter, comes to Blu-ray with Digital HD including UltraViolet for the first time ever on Oct. 15, 2013 in celebration of its 40th Anniversary from Universal Studios Home Entertainment.

Digitally remastered and fully restored from high resolution 35MM original film, fans can now see every blazing gun showdown and action-packed fight like never before, says Universal.

Academy Award winner Clint Eastwood returns to his familiar Old West stomping grounds in his internationally acclaimed role of “The Man with No Name” in High Plains Drifter.

This time, The Stranger (Eastwood) mysteriously appears out of the heat waves of the desert and rides into the lawless, sin-ridden town of Lago.

After making a name for himself with a string of blazing gun battles, The Stranger is hired by the townspeople to provide protection from three ruthless gunmen just out of jail.

Directed by Clint Eastwood himself, this pulse-pounding action-packed film is recognized as one of his signature western classics, says Universal.
