McCabe & Mrs. Miller is a 1971 American
Revisionist Western film starring
Warren Beatty and
Julie Christie, and directed by
Robert Altman. The screenplay is based on Edmund Naughton's 1959 novel
McCabe. Altman referred to it as an "anti-
western film" because the film ignores or subverts a number of Western conventions. In 2010, the film was selected for preservation in the United States
National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being “culturally, historically or aesthetically significant”.
