Synopsis

Vienna is a tough businesswoman making a living in the Wild West, but her bitter rival Emma Small is to trying to frame her as the mastermind behind a stagecoach robbery. The only person who seems always to be on Vienna's side is her ex-boyfriend, Johnny Guitar. This is not a standard Western - women have the key roles and it was filmed in deliberately unrealistic colours designed to make everything weirdly intense.

What our educators say

"It really is a chance for us to open children's minds to the power of film not just as a vehicle for entertainment but also as a way in to understanding their own world and the worlds of people whose lives are very different."

- Marlon Perkins, Teacher, Whitstable and Seasalter Endowed CofE Junior School, Kent
