Plot
Storyline
In the accompanying video to Muse's 2006 magnum opus, a rogue hero with no name fights to liberate a town from the clutches of its ruling sheriff.
'The Man With No Name' (Russ Bain) awakens from a dream to mount his horse and ride across the desert towards the town of Cydonia. He rides past the remains of a once vast city (a collapsed Statue of Liberty is shown in the background) with the aim of defeating the town's sheriff (Richard Brake) and winning over the sheriff's beautiful lover (Cassandra Bell) for his own. Once arriving in the town he fights off a number of the sheriff's inept thugs in front of a seemingly unimpressed crowd, before spending a passionate night with his love interest (Bell). However, once he is banished by the sheriff to the desert once again, the protagonist's strength and courage is put to the ultimate test.
