| The Magnificent Seven (1960) | comment |
An epic 1960 Western translation of Seven Samurai, directed by John Sturges and featuring an All-Star Cast that includes Yul Brynner, Eli Wallach, Steve McQueen, Charles Bronson, Robert Vaughn, James Coburn, Horst Buchholz, and Brad Dexter.Mexican villagers plagued by a band of bandits send a few of their number to the border to buy guns so they can defend themselves. They end up hiring seven gunmen to defend the village instead.Action-packed and boasting an unforgettable music score by Elmer Bernstein (by the way, a young John Williams played piano on Bernstein's score), The Magnificent Seven has so much testosterone that women risk getting pregnant just by watching it. Numerous film historians call it one of the last great "classical" Westerns (i.e., Westerns prior to the rise of the Spaghetti Western subgenre).Followed by several sequel films and a 1998-2000 TV series.Return of the Seven, the first sequel, has the village from the first film be raided by marauders who carry off fifty men into the desert, one of them being Chico, who chose to return and settle down after the first film. Chico's wife goes to the other survivors of the first Band of Seven, Chris and Vin, who recruit five new members to save Chico and the other villages from a mad rancher who is using them as slave labor.Guns of the Magnificent Seven, the second sequel, has a Mexican revolutionary (and a cousin of one of the villages from one of the previous films) seek out and hire Chris to form a third iteration of the Band of Seven to overthrow a sadistic militarist.The Magnificent Seven Ride, the final sequel, has Chris, now married and a US Marshal, be recruited by an old friend of his turned Bounty Hunter to form a new Band of Seven to defeat the bandit lord De Toro.The series, meanwhile, has no connection to the film quadrilogy at all.A remake of the first film was released in September 2016, directed by Antoine Fuqua and with Denzel Washington, Chris Pratt, and Ethan Hawke heading the cast.For the ensemble/plot trope, see The Magnificent Seven Samurai. | |

Canon Foreigner: Of all the characters, Lee is the only one who isn't directly adapted from Seven Samurai (instead filling the space left open by combining Kikuchiyo and Katsushiro into Chico). His characterization as a fighter who's lost his nerve would have been unbecoming of any samurai. Harry's natural counterpart is Gorobei, yet shares none of his characterisation. | |

Pay Evil unto Evil | |
| The Magnificent Seven (1960) / int_1d18887f | comment |
Pay Evil unto Evil: Subverted rather well. Calvera lets the seven go by taking their weapons and riding them out of town. His justification? An old Mexican quote: "A thief who steals from another thief is pardoned for a hundred years." Of course, he assumed that they were just Hired Guns who'd skip town the moment they were paid... By the end of the film, Calvera finds his assumptions were very, very wrong. | |

White Man's Burden | |
| The Magnificent Seven (1960) / int_1effdd6b | comment |
White Man's Burden: The Seven are mainly white Americans (except Chico, who is Mexican, and Bernardo, who is half-Irish half-Mexican). They decide to defend helpless Mexican villagers. Although thanks to some prodding by the Mexican censors, the farmers are first trying to get guns to defend the village themselves - only hiring men when Chris suggests that might be cheaper. And the villagers get involved in the fighting at the end. | |

Accidental Aiming Skills: Britt kills a bandit fleeing on horseback with a single pistol shot from a longish distance. When Chico calls it the best shot he's ever seen, Britt calls it the worst — he had aimed for the horse, because he wanted to take one of the bandits alive and question him about the strength of the bandit group. | |

Adaptation Expansion | |
| The Magnificent Seven (1960) / int_23473ae7 | comment |
Adaptation Expansion: Given that the bandits' leader is given zero characterization and five minutes of screen time in Seven Samurai, Calvera received one of these in spades. Eli Wallach was reluctant to take the role until he was assured this would happen. Several of the Seven are similarly developed, such as Heihachi's counterpart Bernardo having the baggage of being mixed-race and dealing with an Instant Fan Club of boys who don't fully understand the sad and lonely life he leads, or Gorobei's counterpart Harry being a figure motivated by greed more than eternal loyalty to an old friend. | |

Unwanted Assistance: Bernardo's Instant Fanclub follows him everywhere and tries to help him in any way they can; they get him killed in the final battle when they distract him during a gunfight. Earlier, Calvera is talking to Sotero about how they tried to rob a church, only to find nothing worth taking. A bandit watching nearby helpfully adds that they took what was there anyway. Calvera doesn't appreciate the remark very well. | |

The Women Are Safe with Us: The villagers hide their women because they're afraid the hired guns will rape them. Chris acknowledges that their fears are not entirely unjustified (not all gunslingers being as noble as the seven, after all) but opines that "you might have given us the benefit of the doubt." | |

| The Magnificent Seven (1960) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: When Chico is following the group, and seems to have given up already, Harry says, "Now that he's gone, I kind of miss him." This is a line borrowed from Heihachi, who had spoken too soon when he thought that Kikuchiyo had given up following them. After Chico brought the farmers together with a Bavarian Fire Drill and shamed them with a small monologue, Chris says, "Now we are seven", another line borrowed from Heihachi. Vin asks the village boys if they've got a pretty older sister. Kikuchiyo asks the same thing at one point. Harry is introduced trying to pull a similar trick with a doorway that Kambei and Katsushiro attempted on Gorobei. | |

Even Evil Has Standards: Calvera is appalled at how little religion people have. Didn't stop him from robbing a church, though. He also admits to the Seven that he can't get away so easily with his crimes in Texas, because he's Mexican, and the racial prejudice there forces harsher punishments on minorities. | |

Bandito | |
| The Magnificent Seven (1960) / int_3d4e1cca | comment |
Bandito: Calvera and his gang of Mexican outlaws, travelling from village to village to steal what they can. Mustaches, ponchos, and bandoliers of ammunition are prevalent, and sombreros are so ubiquitous that all Chico needs to do is put one on to infiltrate the bandit camp. | |

Sarcasm-Blind: Annoyed with Chico, Vin and Chris sarcastically suggest that he go and ask Calvera his plans for the night. Chico does exactly that, infiltrating Calvera's camp and even speaking directly with Calvera under the cover of the particularly dim fire in the camp. Without being discovered as a spy, Chico slips away from Calvera's camp, returns to the village, and tells everyone the awful truth that Calvera's men are starving and have nowhere else to turn for food. The children tell Bernardo if he dies, there will always be fresh flowers on his grave, he replies "such a comfort". The sarcasm flies over the kids' heads. | |

Sliding Scale of Gender Inequality: All the titular seven are males, the villain is male, and most of the supporting cast are male.

Surprisingly, when it was remade as a TV series, they didn't give one of the seven a Gender Flip, but instead included a female journalist as a significant character. | |

Batman Cold Open | |
| The Magnificent Seven (1960) / int_88e7f8b8 | comment |
Batman Cold Open: The film does a Western variation (escorting a dead Indian to a cemetery whilst under fire) of the Batman Cold Open from Kurosawa's original. It both establishes Chris and Vin's creds as awesome gunslingers and solidifies their respect for each other as men of similar principles and courage. | |

Only in It for the Money | |
| The Magnificent Seven (1960) / int_895ec17 | comment |
Only in It for the Money: Harry Luck is convinced that there has to be some kind of hidden profit motivating Chris and the others to take on such an apparently unprofitable job, and spends most of the film trying to find out what it is. He is, accordingly, the only one of the seven who decides to walk away after Sotero sells them out to Calvera, when it becomes clear that there is no profit to be had. Subverted when Harry returns during the final shootout, saving Chris at the cost of his own life. | |

The Perils of Being the Best | |
| The Magnificent Seven (1960) / int_958ffe8c | comment |
The Perils of Being the Best: Lee is a deconstruction of the archetypal badass western gunslinger. He's a deadly gunman who has become completely paranoid due to frequent attacks on him, no civilian wants him around because of the inevitable violence that will happen when someone tries to kill Lee to take his fame and it spirals out of control, and his nerves are completely shot from his experiences. | |

Invulnerable Horses: Played with. Britt shoots a bandit off his horse at long range. After Chico compliments him, he demurs: "I was aiming for the horse." In the big fight scenes, however, there are several instances of horses falling down from being shot, or being dragged down. They appear to be well-trained stunt animals. | |

Scrap Heap Hero: Lee starts as a sunsetting gunfighter, who lives hiding from his numerous enemies, fearing the bullet faster than his own which will eventually kill him. He hides even during the first confrontation with Calvera. But, during the climax, he faces his demons and saves a group of farmers, quickly dispatching a bunch of bandits and showing that he really is a hell of a gunfighter. After this, his posture and expression seem to show that he has regained the courage of his old days (and, in a twist of irony, he is then immediately killed by a random bullet). | |

Improbable Aiming Skills | |
| The Magnificent Seven (1960) / int_bcd27e37 | comment |
Improbable Aiming Skills The film plays it straight in some instances: several characters make shots on the run, shoot guns out of hands, and make otherwise improbable shots. It doesn't do this as badly as other Westerns from the same era, though. The film averts this, too: Britt — acknowledged as one of the best gunmen of the group — takes several seconds to line up a pistol shot from a longish distance, and he still claims to have missed his intended target (see Accidental Aiming Skills above). | |

And Starring: "And introducing Horst Buchholz" appears at the very end of the cast, separate from his six Magnificent co-stars and Eli Wallach. This wasn't Buchholz's first movie role, but it was the first time American audiences got a good look at him. | |

Sixth Ranger: There is a bit of this going on in two ways. Chico is viewed as this by the other characters, although Lee, unlike the others, does not have a counterpart in Seven Samurai and was created specifically for the film, making him also a Sixth Ranger. | |

Their main purpose in a plot is as an Establishing Character Moment for Chris and Vin: The two gunfighters' sense of decency by volunteering to drive the hearse to the graveyard, their courage for doing so under fire, and finally their skills with a gun when challenged. | |

Twilight of the Old West | |
| The Magnificent Seven (1960) / int_ead5a011 | comment |
Twilight of the Old West: A constant undertone throughout the film. Many of the Seven are facing the prospect of becoming has-beens without a purpose in the newly "civilized" West — and it's indicated that this is a major reason they accept the job: it makes them feel needed. (This parallels Kurosawa's original film, where the samurai are ronin who are suffering the end of the feudal era of Japan.) Calvera too laments how it's getting harder and harder for his bandit gang to steal enough to live off of now that the frontier is getting more civilized. | |
