One man stands alone against the fury of mob justice. Threats. Fists. Bullets. Fire. By one means or another, riled-up folks at Stone Junction are going to have their way. They're dead set on inflicting their brutal vigilante justice on the accused killer held in the town's jailhouse. But there's an immovable object in their path. His name is Johnny Reno.
Dana Andrews (Laura, The Best Years of Our Lives) portrays Reno, a U.S. Marshal armed with his gun and the unflinching courage of his beliefs. Jane Russell (The Outlaw, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes), Lon Chaney (The Wolf Man) and Tom Drake (Meet Me in St. Louis) join Andrews in this character-driven Western that fires off round alter round of hard-fought heroics.
