In partnership with director Anthony Mann, James Stewart helped change the very nature of the western. Considerably tougher than Mann's other psychological entries in the genre, this is a tale of vengeance, as Stewart seeks the man responsible for supplying the Apaches with the guns that killed his brother. The infighting between rancher Donald Crisp and sons Alex Nicol and Arthur Kennedy (one natural, one adopted) dominates the action, but the scenes in which Stewart is shot in the hand and the final shoot-out on the cliffs are the ones you'll remember.

WONDERFUL WESTERN
James Stewart stars in this charming and thrilling western concerning `a man from laramie` who visits a town to drop off some wagons of goods. However, there is more on his agenda then there may seem - avenging his brother's death seven months prior by finding the man who killed him. This leads James Stewart into a web of corruption and deciet in typical 1950 classical western style. I've always thought Nicholas Cage modelled his style of speech on Stewart, my suspicions have been confirmed. Thumbs up!

Anthony Mann & James Stewart
Another great collaboration between the major director and his star actor, As ever there's a gripping psychological theme driving this Western - I'm giving nothing away- just urging you to see The Man From Laramie, made nearly sixty years ago and still a Classic.
