Young Billy Young
Billy better learn fast... or die young!
Directed by Burt Kennedy
Produced by Talbot-Youngstein
A classic Western about a reluctant lawman settling old scores while mentoring a young gunslinger and navigating romantic tension with a saloon dancer.
A peace-loving man named Ben Kane takes a job as deputy marshal of Lords, in the old West. Kane is no lawman, but he accepts the badge because he has an old score to settle with the town's chief trouble-maker. Once on the job, Kane must also deal with a young sharpshooter named Billy Young and a sharp and sassy saloon dancer, Lily.
