Starring: Donald Crisp, Aline MacMahon, Wallace Ford, Cathy O'Donnell, James Stewart, John War Eagle, Jack Elam, James Millican, Arthur Kennedy, Alex Nicol

Directed by: Anthony Mann

An intensely satisfying drama of rugged primitive justice, The Man From Laramie marked the final and finest collaboration of one of the most important teams in Western films: director Anthony Mann and star Jimmy Stewart. Under Mann’s superb direction, Stewart departs from his well-loved “ordinary hero” role and gives a riveting performance as a resolute vigilante obsessed with finding the man responsible for his brother’s death. Among the suspects are an arrogant cattle baron, his sadistic son, and his ranch foreman. One explosive confrontation, in which Stewart is dragged by a wild horse and shot in the hand at close range, is one of movie history’s most memorable sequences. A perfect example of the Western as America’s epic art form.
