re: Best Opening Lines of a Movie

Unforgiven (written words)

Of good family, albeit one of
modest means, she was a comely
young woman and not without
prospects. Therefore it was at
once heartbreaking and astonishing
to her mother that she would enter
into marriage with William Munny, a
known thief and murderer, a man of
notoriously vicious and intemperate
disposition.


They were married in St. Louis in
1870 and they traveled North to
Kansas where he engaged in farming
and swine husbandry.
