DECISION AT SUNDOWN (1957) ¢ ¢ ¢ ¢
D: Budd Boetticher
Randolph Scott, John Carroll, Karen Steele,
Noah Beery Jr., Valerie French, John Archer,
Andrew Duggan, Vaughn Taylor, Richard Deacon
Randolph Scott rides into the frightened town of Sundown to get revenge on the man who caused the death of his wife. From that point on - from the very start, really - nothing turns out the way you expect. A great B western, an exercise in obsession, delusion and fear, that, like Scott's performance, is both off its hinges and rigorously controlled. See it and decide for yourself who comes out ahead in the end, and who rides out of town defeated.
