"WARHORSE is a lusty, muscular first novel by the author of the distinguished short story that was the basis for the motion picture, High noon. The time is 1882 and the scene ranges boldly over the face of the Old West from San Antonio north to Warhorse, Montana. The days of the great American cattle boom were rough and exciting, and Cunningham evokes them with wonderful authenticity: the bawling, milling herds, the vast prairies, the sharp financial practices, the traditions of the Old West striving to resist the encroachments of the new. But WARHORSE is primarily Buford Allen's story: tough, wily, incorrigible old Buford Allen, whose double-or-nothing gamble with fate is prompted by fierce passions, paradoxically tempered by the tenderest sentiments of love. Across the dust-choked prairies and through the wide-open towns Buford pursues his impossible dreams, clashing with the law, careless of life and honor alike, stubbornly battling his enemies--all but the unseen enemy within himself. A tale of hard men in furious action, of love found and love lost, of pride and greed and humility, WARHORSE is a big and compelling novel."--Book jacket.

Hungarian cinema has often been forced to tread a precarious and difficult path. Through the failed 1919 revolution to the defeat of the 1956 Uprising and its aftermath, Hungarian film-makers and their audiences have had to contend with a multiplicity of problems. In the 1960s, however, Hungary entered into a period of relative stability and increasing cultural relaxation, resulting in an astonishing growth of film-making. Innovative and groundbreaking directors such as Miklós Jancsó (Hungarian Rhapsody, The Red and the White), István Szabó (Mephisto, Sunshine) and Márta Mészaros (Little Vilma: The Last Diary) emerged and established the reputation of Hungarian films on a global basis. This is the first book to discuss all major aspects of Hungarian cinema, including avant-garde, animation, and representations of the Gypsy and Jewish minorities.
