"The Tall Stranger" (1957)
-Joel McCrea, Virginia Mayo

Synopsis: IMDB
Ned Bannon comes across rustlers and is shot and left for dead, but is found in time by a wagon train heading for California. When he recovers he becomes suspicious of the two outsiders who are leading the train into a dead-end valley owned by his hostile half-brother. Braving his relative's animosity going back to the Civil War, Bannon makes contact to try and avoid a showdown.

Phantom's Review: Finally, after a couple of dud westerns, I get to see a good movie. Plenty of action and a good story (based on a fine Louis L'Amour novel) I enjoyed this film.
