About This Movie

The Rifleman (2020) is this deep dive into the intertwining worlds of gun culture and law enforcement. It’s all archival footage, which gives it this gritty, real texture. You feel the weight of history as it lays bare the evolution of the National Rifle Association and its ties to the U.S. Border Patrol over five decades. The pacing is contemplative, allowing you to soak in the visuals and the stark realities they portray. The tone is somber but necessary, making you reflect on the implications of the subject matter.

Definitely a unique piece for anyone interested in how deeply entrenched these institutions are in American society.
