The Gunfighter

“Sure, the dark, dusty horseman of this fiction, played shrewdly by Gregory Peck, is personally remote and laconic, just as most Western buckos are, and he's a dangerous man with a pistol—the acknowledged "top gun of the West."...But the uncommon thing about him is that he hates to shoot. He is trying, in fact, to shun trouble in the most determined way. Only the young, foolish "squirts" in every bar-room won't let him pursue his peaceful way.”
