Film: Johnny Guitar

Saloon-owner Vienna (Joan Crawford) seeks to bring the railroad to her small town, but faces violent opposition by the locals led by Emma (Mercedes McCambridge). As protection she summons Johnny Guitar, her ex-lover.
Philip Yordan’s script is literary Hollywood at its best, with extraordinary performances in the two central female roles, both embracing and transcending melodrama.
