Buchanan Rides Alone (Standard Edition) Blu Ray

Budd Boetticher's collaborations with star Randolph Scott are ostensibly small-scale B-movies, but are now revered as some of the finest adult westerns produced in that period. Tom Buchanan (Scott) is a man returning to his Texas home, who rides into a feud between several members of the criminal Agry family. When he helps a young Mexican take revenge on one of them, Buchanan soon finds himself up against the whole Agry clan. The most witty and comedic film in the ˜Ranown' series, this absurdist twist on the western is one of Boetticher's most thoroughly enjoyable... films.
