Last Train from Gun Hill is a 1959 Western by action director John Sturges. It stars Kirk Douglas, Anthony Quinn, Carolyn Jones, and Earl Holliman. Douglas and Holliman had previously appeared together in Sturges' Gunfight at the O.K. Corral, which used much of the same crew. Contents 1 Plot2 Cast3 Filming locations4 See also5 References6 External links Plot Two old friends, Matt Morgan (Douglas) and Craig Belden (Quinn), now find themselves on opposite sides of the law. Belden is the de facto ruler of the town of Gun Hill, a rich cattle baron. Morgan is a U.S. marshal living in another town with his Native American wife (played by Ziva Rodann) and young son, Petey. Two young drunken cowboys rape and murder Morgan's wife while she is returning with their son from a visit to her father. The boy escapes on one of the killers' horses, bearing a distinctive, fancy saddle. Morgan sets off to find the killer. His one clue is the saddle, which he recognizes as belonging to Belden. Assuming it was stolen from his old friend, Morgan travels to Gun Hill to pick up the trail, but once there he quickly realizes that Belden's son Rick (Holliman) is the killer. Belden refuses to turn over his son, forcing Morgan to go against the entire town. He vows to capture Rick and get him on that night's last train from Gun Hill. Morgan takes Rick prisoner, holding him at the hotel. Belden sends men to rescue his son, but Morgan manages to hold them off. In the meantime, Belden's former lover (Jones) decides to help Morgan. She sneaks a shotgun to his hotel room. The second rapist, Lee, sets fire to the hotel to flush out Morgan. Morgan presses the shotgun to Rick's chin on the way to the train depot, threatening to pull the trigger if anyone attempts to stop him. Lee tries to kill Morgan but shoots Rick instead. Morgan then kills Lee with the shotgun. As the train prepares to leave, a devastated Belden confronts Morgan in a final showdown and is gunned down.

Although there are some psychological undertones, it is a film that plays for almost pure action. Kirk Douglas’ Indian wife is raped and killed by two young brutes (Earl Holliman and Brian Hutton). Douglas, marshal of the town of Pauley, finds a clue that leads him to the neighboring community of Gun Hill. He discovers his fugitive (Holliman) is the son of his old friend (Anthony Quinn). His problem is how to get Holliman away to justice on that ‘last train’, with Quinn and his hired gunhands determined to thwart him. James Poe’s screenplay slips into a few cliches in dialog, but it is remarkable in that it avoids more. It is refreshing in its ability to shut up when action should take over, when a gesture or look completely conveys meaning. Cameraman Charles Lang also employs an unusual number of very long shots in his sunbaked exteriors, with the human figures barely discernible black miniatures on the raw, yellow landscape. Douglas and Quinn, by performances in depth, give the film the inevitability of tragedy. Carolyn Jones delivers impressively. Earl Holliman is most effective and sympathetic as the weakling son. Last Train From Gun Hill With the commercial and critical success of Gunfight at the O.K. Corral (1957) in his back pocket, producer Hal Wallis teamed up again with one of the stars of that picture, Kirk Douglas (now owner of his own outfit, Bryna Productions), for a follow-up Western. Also returning from the O.K. scuffle were director John Sturges, cinematographer Charles Lang, composer Dimitri Tiomkin, art directors Hal Pereira and Walter Tyler, and editor Warren Low. The project was Last Train from Gun Hill (1959), a tense psychological Western based on an original story by television writer Les Crutchfield called Showdown, which was at one time a working title of the movie. Other titles under consideration were Last Train from Harper's Junction, Last Train from Laredo, One Angry Day, and Showdown at Gun Hill. According to a Daily Variety news item, Wallis purchased the story in March 1954 as a possible starring vehicle for Burt Lancaster or Charlton Heston. But Douglas ended up in the lead role with second billing going to Anthony Quinn in his third film with Kirk. Quinn's last film with the dimpled chin, Lust for Life (1956), earned him an Oscar® for Best Supporting Actor. This was also Quinn's third film with character actor Earl Holliman. In addition to Last Train from Gun Hill, Holliman played Quinn's son in Hot Spell (1958). In an archival interview with TCM, Holliman recalled that "Tony (Quinn) once said to me...'if we play father and son again, I'm going to put you on an allowance.'" Last Train from Gun Hill also features Carolyn Jones in a supporting role as an unexpected friend to Douglas' Marshall Morgan, who passes along little tokens of her friendship, like a loaded shotgun, for instance. Jones happens to be Quinn's long-suffering and possibly abused mistress, a woman who has lived a lifetime of being 'the other woman.' To a man who tries to pick her up in one scene, she responds, "I hadn't been lonesome since I was twelve years old." Last Train from Gun Hill begins with the brutal rape and murder of a young Indian woman (Ziva Rodann) by two drunken cowthugs, Rick Belden (Holliman) and his loyal friend Lee Smithers (Brian G. Hutton). But the woman isn't alone; her young son witnesses the initial assault, and escapes on Holliman's horse. The little boy heads to town for his father, Marshal Matt Morgan (Douglas). The grief stricken Morgan vows to bring the killers to justice, and he finds just the way to do it when he correctly identifies the saddle on Holliman's horse as belonging to an old friend of his, Craig Belden (Quinn), a powerful cattleman who lives some distance away in a town called Gun Hill. Morgan and Belden have a history together and had been close friends at one time. They eventually went their separate ways but remained tight. When Douglas accuses Belden's son of rape and murder, however, their friendship is severely tested. Director John Sturges had just completed The Old Man and the Sea (1958) and was on his way to big success with The Magnificent Seven (1960) and The Great Escape (1963). As he did with almost every genre picture he made, he takes routine and formulaic material and turns it into something interesting and unique. For instance, the violence in Last Train from Gun Hill doesn't follow the clichés of the typical western with the obligatory shootouts. In one unexpected scene, Holliman's villainous character is shown handcuffed to a bed. After he sarcastically suggests Douglas stand close to the hotel window where Quinn's men stand ready to shoot him, Douglas viciously shoves Holliman, bed and all, right into the window to possibly receive Quinn's bullets instead. The threat of violence, in fact, pervades the movie and gives it an underlying tension particularly in the scenes where Douglas holds a shotgun under Holliman's chin or gives a methodical description of a public hanging. As for the tragic rape and murder of Douglas' wife that opens the film, it mostly takes place off screen but Sturges fashions it into a visually disturbing sequence that hangs over the entire movie and drives the narrative. There must been an even more explicit version of it at one point: An April 18, 1958 item in Hollywood Reporter 's "Rambling Reporter" column stated that for the European version of the film, Ziva Rodann, who played the murdered wife, would be "nude from the navel." (In the assault scene, Catherine's bare back is exposed, but the front of her body is not visible.) Stylistically, Last Train from Gun Hill is a compelling contrast of widescreen vistas and silhouetted psychological turmoil. Sturges splashes his action across the VistaVision canvas, but keeps the camera low to the ground to heighten the expansive compositions, but also to convey a sense of unease and foreboding. To illustrate Quinn's inner turmoil, Sturges bathes him in shadow, often in profile. Yet Sturges isn't showy in his technique, using relatively simple camera movements and an editing style that doesn't call attention to itself. Even the climax avoids overstatement; instead of a melodramatic music cue by composer Dimitri Tiomkin, there's just the quiet crackling sounds of a building on fire, as all of Gun Hill awaits the final outcome of the inevitable showdown. In its review Variety said that "Last Train from Gun Hill is a top western...a film that plays for almost pure action." But the reviewer singled out praise for the cinematography of Charles Lang, commenting, "Lang has one technique, opening on a background with a medium shot and then pulling back to bring in the scene's central character, that seems fresh and effective...None of this is conspicuously 'arty', but acts as an imperceptible aid in heightening tension and involvement."

Read the New York Times Review » By BOSLEY CROWTHER Directed by: John Sturges Review Summary Just outside the small town of Pauley, a Native American woman is attacked by two riders on horseback, raped, and killed. Her husband, Matt Morgan (Kirk Douglas), the town marshal, has only two clues to their identity, a fancy saddle with the initials "C.B." that one of the men left behind, and the fact that his wife cut one of the two men deep across the cheek with a buggy whip. Morgan traces the saddle to Craig Belden (Anthony Quinn), an old friend and now a wealthy rancher in the town of Gun Hill, but he knows Belden well enough to know that he couldn't have had anything to do with attacking his wife. Morgan's arrival with Belden's saddle sets off ugly rumblings in Gun Hill, and when he confronts the rancher, he discovers that it was his son Rick (Earl Holliman) who had his horse and the saddle, and rode out with a cowhand friend of his, Lee (Brian G. Hutton) -- but they claim their horses were stolen. Belden tries to convince Morgan, and wants to believe himself that whoever stole the horses must have killed his wife, but when Morgan mentions the cut that one of the killers will have on his face, they both know the truth. He vows to take Rick and Lee back to Pauley to stand trial, while Belden swears he'll do anything it takes to protect his son. Belden is virtually all the law there is in Gun Hill -- the sheriff (Walter Sande) won't help Morgan serve his arrest warrants on the two men, or even let him use the jail to hold them until the last train that night; there's not a working man, a shopkeeper, or even a prostitute in the whole town that will go against the rancher, and Belden's foreman Beero (Brad Dexter) and his men will strongarm anyone who might start feeling brave. Only Linda (Carolyn Jones), a woman who has been both romanced and abused by Belden, will lift a finger on Morgan's behalf. The marshal is nothing if not resourceful, however, and Rick Belden is also too stupid for his own good, and manages to fall into Morgan's hands in short order. Very quickly, a standoff ensues, with Morgan holding Rick in one of Belden's buildings against virtually the entire town, while the deadline -- the last train out of Gun Hill that night -- approaches. People die and a chunk of Belden's holdings are destroyed, but Morgan is about to get Rick onto the train and off to trial when suddenly, one sudden act of violence destroys father and son in a matter of seconds. ~ Bruce Eder, Rovi Full New York Times Review » Movie Details Title: Last Train From Gun HillRunning Time: 94 MinutesStatus: ReleasedCountry: United StatesGenre: Western     ebay3330
