Angel And The Badman
In Angel and the Badman, John Wayne pulls double duty as both an actor and producer and the end result is one of his best films. He plays a wounded outlaw that is nursed back to health by a Quaker family. The hard-bitten Duke undergoes a subtle transformation as he falls in love with the daughter, played by Gail Russell. The exciting conclusion to the story will keep you guessing to the very end.

The Outlaw
Hughes' variation on the saga of Billy the Kid, spends more time on Billy's relationship with girlfriend Rio than on the climatic showdown with Pat Garrett. The famous Russell vehicle isn't as steamy as it must have seemed to viewers of the day, but the brouhaha around it served to keep it on the shelf for six years.

Buetel, Walter Huston and
