The Tin Star
1957, English. Directed by Anthony Mann.
For $40 a month and a shiny Tin Star…the young sheriff faced the mob alone…except for the angry ex-sheriff who couldn’t watch him die and a hero-worshipping boy who lived only for the day he’d wear a Tin Star of his own!
An experienced bounty hunter helps a young sheriff learn the meaning of his badge.
