Guns of Diablo (1964)

Directed by Boris Sagal
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Encore Westerns)

Edited together from a TV series, this one is all about Charles Bronson and his machismo. He arrives in a dusty town and finds an old flame in a saloon. In an extended flashback, we learn their story. She is betrothed to the hateful son of her employer, but is attracted to Chuck and his bare torso. They eventually end up naked in a field of daisies under a tree. A final shootout is well-done, but otherwise it's a TV-quality production, and young Kurt Russell is just irritating in his enthusiasm.
