Sam Peckinpah’s Junior Bonner is a superior rodeo movie. It presents an intricately layered worldview that ultimately supercedes its somewhat conventional narrative. Concerned, like many of Peckinpah’s films, with aging and obsolescence to the extent that it turns the convictions of its titular hero (Steve McQueen) into a romantic quest of sorts; the picture’s true meaning lies in the grace notes and minor details that Peckinpah injects throughout. Superbly edited, with thoroughly unconventional cutting and few establishing shots, Peckinpah’s work highlights small, intimate details that most other films of this sort would gloss over. As a result, it becomes less about Junior’s quest for an eight-second ride atop a bucking bronco than it is about Junior’s place in the world.
Steve McQueen’s performance is verbally inexpressive, but physically articulate, giving us strong insight into his character’s interior life. His characterization is chock full of terrific nuance; in a scene that shows him nervously awaiting the results of a lottery to determine the bull he will ride, we don’t get a reaction shot of the actor, but instead a extreme close-up of him nervously, almost unconsciously, fiddling with a typewriter. That’s a refined and unexpected touch typical of Junior Bonner, though. Even the treatment of Junior’s nominal, seemingly obligatory, love interest, expressed throughout most of the film entirely in visual terms, turns out to be something of a non-starter, serving more as a springboard for which Peckinpah can transfer the erotic energy that existed between Junior and his groupie to Junior’s parents, in a subtly tragic, but immeasurably moving scene that closes their character arc.
