Man with the Gun
A man who lived and breathed violence!
Directed by Richard Wilson
Produced by United Artists, Formosa Productions
A hardened town tamer confronts violence, corruption, and a troubled past when hired to clean up a lawless frontier town where his estranged wife has become entangled.
A stranger comes to town looking for his estranged wife. He finds her running the local girls. He also finds a town and sheriff afraid of their own shadow, scared of a landowner they never see who rules through his rowdy sidekicks. The stranger is a town tamer by trade, and he accepts a $500 commission to sort things out.
