The Wild Bunch : An Album in Montage (1996)

Nominated this year for an Academy Award for Best Documentary Short Subject, The Wild Bunch: An Album in Montage is a behind the scenes look at the making of an American classic. In 1995, some 70 minutes of black and white footage of Peckinpah directing his 1969 neowestern The Wild Bunch were discovered on a shelf in the vaults of Warner Bros. Studios. No one knows who shot them or how they got there, but they ve sat there for over a quarter of a century.
