Fury at Showdown (1957)


United Artists
Directed by Gerd Oswald
My rating: 3 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Encore)

Moody little character study of John Derek as convicted gunslinger who does his time but has trouble adjusting on the outside. He tries to start ranching but the brother of the man he killed vows to prevent him. The townspeople don't really want him around either. His former girlfriend doesn't trust him. He starts to lose his mind leading to a shootout with a hired gunslinger. Hidden gem that deserves a better reputation.
