About Bordertown Gun Fighters
Cameo Shelby is running a crooked lottery out of El Paso and treasury agent Bill Elliott has been sent to break it up. When Bill intercepts a shipment of tickets to New Mexico he forces Shelby to send incriminating papers in the next shipment. Bill captures these also and now has the evidence he needs to go after Shelby.
Directed by Howard Bretherton, Bordertown Gun Fighters leans on a strong ensemble — Bill Elliott, George 'Gabby' Hayes, Roy Barcroft — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about western titles of 1943.
