Budd Boetticher was a rare director who understood that tension isn’t just about gunfights and showdowns. It lives in the quiet moments, in the pauses between words, in the weight of a glance. He brought that sensibility to “7 Men from Now,” crafting a lean, absorbing Western where every silence hums with unease.
