Plot
In 1876, Lin McAdam (James Stewart) and
friend 'High-Spade' Frankie Wilson (Millard Mitchell)
pursue outlaw 'Dutch Henry' Brown (Stephen McNally)
into Dodge City, Kansas. They arrive just in time to see a man
forcing a saloon-hall girl named Lola (Shelley Winters)
onto the stage leaving town. Once the man reveals himself to be Sheriff Wyatt Earp (Will Geer) Lin
backs down. Earp
informs the two men that firearms are not allowed in town and they must check
them in with Earp's brother Virgil. Lin and Dutch Henry see each
other in the saloon, but are unable to fight due to the presence of Earp. Lin
enters a shooting competition, contending against Dutch Henry among others, that
is held on the Fourth of July. They end up the two finalists for a prized
one-of-one-thousand perfect Winchester rifle.
Lin wins by betting that he can shoot through a stamp placed over the hole of
round piece from an Indian necklace and then doing it. Dutch Henry claims that
he is leaving town, but then goes to Lin's boarding house room and jumps Lin
when he enters and steals the prize. He and his two cohorts leave town with Lin
and High-Spade in hot pursuit.
