Customer Reviews

Best Western?
This is one incredible western! It's so good that Bob Dylan even pays homage to it in the song "Brownsville Girl". Gregory Peck is the man! I'll see him in anything. It's mainly about some bad-ass old gunfighter trying to retire and a snot-nosed little upstart who wants to make a name for himself. Don't miss it!

A big tough gunny
In the beginning of the movie the gun fighter weary from a long ride is having a drink at a saloon when a young gunny taunts him into drawing.
In this movie an older gun fighter Jimmy Ringo comes to see his wife and boy: he has in mind changing his name and moving away from where he is known
as the fastest gun around. She says wait a year and come back.
He agrees and starts to leave town.
The whole point is that success as a gunfighter is a curse
that goes with winning a big name.
It is a very good western about the gunfighter era of the old west.
