My next selection is a western, or film noir, or just a combination of both. It stars Spencer Tracey (1) as the one arm stranger. The town folk don't like the questions he's asking. Is there a problem? Robert Ryan (2) and Lee Marvin (3) lead the all star cast of the towns people. Bad Day at Black Rock (1955) is the recommended film for the week.
(1) Old Man and the Sea, 1958
(2) Naked Spur, 1953, another Jimmy Stewart mention
(3) Paint Your Wagon, 1969
