Outlaws and Lawmen (Lawman/Hour of the Gun/Day of the Outlaw)



Great Western Noir
Gritty, real west, no bull or frills. The way it was. Burt Lancaster at this remote and taciturn best. Robert Ryan at his sardonic best also. James Garner great in an out of character strictly business role (as Wyatt Earp). Jason Robards at his sardonic best also.
Lawmen is an unusual but haunting movie. Noir to the max. Not a trickle of a laugh in it.
Day of the Outlaw also a noir gem. Hour of the Gun the way it was (the OK Corral story that has been butchered in other films).
Three top notch films.

Liked films
Good old fashioned western films. Husband is more of a western buff. He enjoyed the movies also. Good deal for one dvd.
