Summary
“Man Of The West” is an off-beat western which tells of a reformed gunslinger whose past catches up with him when he meets his former evil gang-leader, played by Lee J. Cobb. The picture stars Gary Cooper, whose very name is synonymous with “the man of the west.’” In this picture, Cooper is at his best form, riding, shooting and fighting. Julie London is co-starred in the leading feminine role. Although her part is a straight dramatic one, her lush singing voice may be heard rendering the title song off-screen as the final scene fades out. A knock-downdrag-out fight between Cooper and Jack Lord, a forced strip-tease at knife point by Miss London, and a_ bone-hard seript by Reginald Rose, author of ‘12 Angry Men,” are all qualities that make this picture top movie fare.

The Story (Not For Publicanan)
It is 1874 in eastern Arizona. Aboard a train with $600 to be used for hiring a schoolteacher is Link Jones (Gary Cooper) former gunslinger and bandit, now happily married and “gone straight.” He meets card sharp Sam Beasley (Arthur O’Connell) and a shapely dance-hall singer, Billie Ellis (Julie London). During a stop, the train is held up by Dock Tobin (Lee J. Cobb) and his gang. Link and Tobin recognize each other. Tobin is Link’s uncle and leader of the gang that Link used to work with.
Left behind when the train departs, Link, Sam and Billie go to the outlaws’ cabin where Link, in order to protect all concerned, especially Billie, in whom Tobin has shown a particular interest, pretends to want to rejoin the gang. In order to prove he is on the level, Tobin orders
him to participate in a planned bank robbery. Dock sends two of his henchmen with Link to scout the bank in Lassoo. There they find only an old Mexican woman, whom one of the henchmen shoots. Link grabs her weapon and after a desperate gun battle, slays the henchmen.
He returns to the cabin just in time to prevent an attack on Billie by Dock. Tobin, seeing Link return, and feeling old and discouraged by losing his nephew’s respect, enters into a half-hearted gun duel with Link—and is killed.
Billie goes on her way, with a great deal of respect for Link, and the latter successfully completes his mission to find a new schoolteacher for his pioneering town.
