Rio Hondo



Retired Marshal Bert McGraw tries to give up his gunslinging ways but is forced to wear his holster one last time to defend the family ranch against the encroaching railroad and its gang of cutthroats led by the notorious Sanchez. A tale of redemption as big as the old west itself, Rio Hondo is a sendup of the good-ol' fashioned comedy that will have audiences rollin’ in the aisles; a laugh-a-minute’ fashioned Westerns you grew up loving.
