SHOOTOUT AT BIG SAG (1962) Walter Brennan, Don Robinson, Luana Patten, Leif Erickson, Les Tremayne, Constance Ford. Ignore the IMDB reviews, this is an engaging action-western drama. Brennan is the pawn of his bossy wife, who wants a range war with Erickson. It doesn’t help that Walter’s daughter and Leif’s son have fallen in love. Tremayne, is great as the sleazy saloon owner hired to “seal the deal” in favor of Walter’s family. Ford nearly steals the film as his lustful, saloon-queen wife. Not the kind of ending you’d expect for this kind of film. 16mm.
