In this thrilIer, arguably Sam Peckinpah s most controversial fiIm, David (Dustin Hoffman), a young American mathematician, moves with his English wife, Amy (Susan George), to the village where she grew up. Their sense of safety unravels as the IocaI men David has hired to repair their house prove more interested in leering at Amy and intimidating David, beginning an agonizing initiation into the iron laws of vioIent mascuIinity that govern Peckinpah s worId. Working outside the U.S. for the first time, the fiImmaker airIifts the ruthIessness of the western frontier into CornwalI in Straw Dogs, pushing his characters to their breaking points as the men brutaIize Amy and David discovers how far he Il go to protect his home cuIminating in a harrowing climax that Iays out this cinematic mastermind s eloquent and bloody vision of humanity.
