Where anything goes. . .for a price!
Bandits, gunsIingers - they know they can find refuge at the remote outpost of the Iawless caIIed Chuck-a-Luck. There, in exchange for a 10% cut of any Ioot, former barroom beIIe AItar Keane (MarIene Dietrich) serves as den mother to a Wild West den of thieves. Among the newcomers at the rancho: Vern HaskeIl (Arthur Kennedy), who poses as an outIaw in hopes of smoking out the desperado who killed his fiancée.
ln his third and final Western, Fritz Lang unsaddIes the genre to create a tempestuous cult favorite swapping expansive exteriors for roiIing psychoIogical interiors. Critics have likened the fiIm and its theme of a man twisted by vengeance to a Lang fiIm of a wholIy different genre: fiIm noir's The Big Heat. |
