Winchester '73

Directed by Anthony Mann

With James Stewart, Shelley Winters, Dan Duryea, Stephen McNally and Millard Mitchell

Lin McAdam rides into town on the trail of Dutch Henry Brown, only to find himself in a shooting competition against him. McAdam wins the prize, a one-in-a-thousand Winchester rifle, but Dutch steals it and leaves town. McAdam follows, intent on settling his old quarrel, while the rifle keeps changing hands and touching a number of lives.
