Paint Your Wagon (12)

This is a dementia supportive screening in association with Teesside Dementia Link Services.

A Michigan farmer and a prospector form a partnership in the California gold country. Their adventures include buying and sharing a wife, hijacking a stage, kidnaping six prostitutes, and turning their mining camp into a boomtown. Along the way there is plenty of drinking, gambling, and singing. They even find time to do some creative gold mining.

Director: Joshua Logan

Cast: Lee Marvin, Clint Eastwood, Jean Seberg

• BBFC Rating Info (may contain spoilers)

  Language

  There is use of moderate bad language (‘whore’) as well as milder terms including ‘bastard’, ‘bloody’, ‘tart’, ‘damn’, ‘God’ and ‘hell’.

  Sex

  There are a number of references to sex work and sex workers, as the film sees a brothel set up in a mining town, as well as remarks about people being ‘horny’. A man rips off his wife’s blouse, revealing her corset and cleavage below, and later it is implied they have sex off-screen.

  Additional Issues

  Punches are occasionally thrown, and in one scene a man throws a knife at another though the sequence is comic. A man is seen with blood on his head following an injury. There is threat when extensive tunnels underground collapse underneath a town, causing people to fall down holes and buildings to sway and topple. A man makes a comment warning another against violence towards his wife. There is historical sexism, and infrequent use of outdated terms such as ‘Indian’, though discrimination is not condoned. A statue shows nudity in the background of a scene. A single reference is made to suicide, without detail. People consume alcohol and are seen smoking.
