BUCHANAN RIDES ALONE

Year: 1958
Runtime: 78 min.
Country: USA

Color: Color
Format: 16mm

Though a lesser-known film in the Randolph Scott-Budd Boetticher canon, BUCHANAN RIDES ALONE is a compelling Western in which Scott rides into a border town only to inadvertently become involved in a murder. Because Scott upsets the powerful and corrupt family that runs the town, he is forced to surrender his money and leave, but he soon comes back seeking revenge. Plot twists, shifting loyalties, and double-crosses build suspense as Scott attempts to seek justice for himself and the victims of the corrupt family's crimes.
