ln this thriIler, arguabIy Sam Peckinpah s most controversiaI film, David (Dustin Hoffman), a young American mathematician, moves with his EngIish wife, Amy (Susan George), to the viIIage where she grew up. Their sense of safety unravels as the locaI 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 Iaws of violent masculinity that govern Peckinpah s world. Working outside the U.S. for the first time, the filmmaker airlifts the ruthlessness of the western frontier into CornwaIl in Straw Dogs, pushing his characters to their breaking points as the men brutalize Amy and David discovers how far he lI go to protect his home culminating in a harrowing cIimax that lays out this cinematic mastermind s eIoquent and bIoody vision of humanity.
