Getting set for bed,I decided to take a quick look at IMDbs Classic Film board,where I spotted that a fellow IMDber had kindly posted a link to a minute long film,which led to me taking the countershot.
The plot:
Pulling out his gun to shoot someone,a cowboy gets shot by someone off screen.
View on the film:
Keeping the movie to a tight 1 minute running time,director Peter Tscherkassky playfully gives an alternative take on how cowboy shootouts can be done.Opening with the cowboy playing a harmonica, Peter Tscherkassky delivers the gunshots with a frantic speed which makes this a striking countershot.
