Destry Rides Again
They make the fighting sinful west blaze into action before your eyes!
Directed by George Marshall
Produced by Universal Pictures
A lighthearted Western comedy about an unconventional lawman who challenges frontier violence through wit and principle rather than gunplay.
Tom Destry, son of a legendary frontier peacekeeper, doesn’t believe in gunplay. Thus he becomes the object of widespread ridicule when he rides into the wide-open town of Bottleneck, the personal fiefdom of the crooked Kent.
