Gunfight: The Battle Over the Right to Bear Arms in America and millions of other books are available for instant access.
Will Tenneray and Abe Cross are two famous gunfighters who are getting old and need money. Cross tried his luck at gold prospecting but failed. Tenneray works at the local saloon where he capitalizes on his past fame to 'sucker fools into buying drinks'. The town expects them to become enemies and kill each other in a gunfight but the two aging gunfighters start liking one another. Desperate for money, Tenneray suggests to Cross to put on a show for the townsfolk and fight in an arena for money.
The proceeds from the ticket sales would go to the winner of the gunfight. Both men like the idea of a paid show but hate the possibility of one of them killing the other. When an outcast gunfighter (a recently deceased Johnny Cash) with battered hat and black dressed goes to a Western small town called Rio Bajo, he meets an old time gunslinger named Tenneray (Kirk Douglas) stranded in the location along with his wife (Jane Alexander) and son (Eric Douglas). Today he's a big guy with an enjoyable family. Haunting ground game. Meanwhile the drifter named Will falls in love with a Saloon girl (Karen Black), the girl who could give the big guy a hard time.
The two gunmen get a friendship; Tenneray says him that he earns in a month it that he spent in one day and which killed the famous gunfighter Ringo. The 'Rio Bajo' folks expect a gun-down and they'd never forget the day the confrontation between Cross and Will. Before they paid to see a man murder a bull, nowadays they pay to see killing men. Needing money, both arrange a showdown for paid entrance and the winner take all. They're got to face a gunfight once more to live up to their legend once more to win just once more time and more money. The excitement starts at the duel when the hands point straight up. They've nothing like'em together in a duel but in the heat and hate of the small town nothing can tear'em apart.
Thus, a bull square will become the scenario of the most spectacular duel ever attempted. Who will survive and what will be left of them?. The picture concerns upon a gun-battle pits two individualist characters. It's a serious, mature Hollywood Western with particular character studio about an aging gunslinger looking for peace and quiet, but also money and unable to avoid his reputation and the duel-challenges it invites against the baby-faced gun-fisted kid (Keith Carradine). So many good actors, such excellent actors as Raf Vallone, Robert J. Wilke, Keith Carradine, Dana Elcar among them, consent to appear in what amount small roles, besides make their film debut Johnny Cash and Eric Douglas (Kirk's true son and recently deceased for drug abuse). The lion's share of the acting meat deservedly goes to Johnny Cash in spite of his first film.
There is, in addition, Johnny Cash's catchy theme and equally an impressive roaring climax with an amazing final showdown. It's a better than average Western although a little slow moving.
The motion picture was well directed by Lamont Johnson (Little Annie and Little Britches and Mackenzie break). If you're a Western fan you can't go far wrong with this.
