Colt .45 (1950)
7/10
Gun thieves, escaped prisoner, and cowboys imitating Indians all add up to an entertaining western
24 August 2022
Any western that includes Randolph Scott is guaranteed to be a decent western but then add Lloyd Bridges, Ruth Roman, and Zachary Scott to the mix and you have just made the film a western classic. Ruth Roman is especially hard not to like in her role as the good, then evil, then again good woman. The plot is simple enough when Zachary Scott while breaking out of his jail cell absconds with Randolph Scott's two prototype .45 guns.

So the hunt is on but whose chasing who?

This is a pretty good western/adventure/romance film and when you include an underlying storyline of white men pretending to be mean Indians you just know there is going to be hell to pay to rid the town of the bad guys.

I give the film a decent 7 out of 10 IMDb rating.
