About Gun Fight
Action Western directed by Edward L. Cahn .

Directed by Edward L. Cahn, Gun Fight leans on a strong ensemble — James Brown, Joan Staley, Gregg Palmer — 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 1961.
