A pretty good western about a man who becomes sheriff mainly because his brother, the original sheriff, was killed and justice needs to be served, as well as making the town finally orderly. Real men, outlaws, simply everything you expect from a western, not to mention there's quite a bit of shooting, although there's also plenty of talking.
