Forty Guns

Dean Jagger,Barbara Stanwyck,Hank Worden,Barry Sullivan

An authoritarian rancher, Barbara Stanwyck, who rules an Arizona county with her private posse of hired guns. After a new marshal arrives to set things straight, the cattle queen finds herself falling, brutally for the avowedly non-violent lawman. Both have itchy-fingered brothers, a female gun maker enters the picture, and things go desperately wrong.—Tamsin
