Story Synopsis

MGM/UA Home Video has released a double feature of the United Artists produced westerns Duel At Diablo and Hour Of The Gun, but unfortunately Duel At Diablo was not issued in its original widescreen theatrical aspect ratio and is not reviewed as a result. There have been many films made about the Gunfight at the OK Corral including John Sturges’ original. Hour Of The Gun is a little more austere and probably somewhat more historically accurate than most, depicting the events that occurred after the famous shoot-out. It features an outstanding, all-star cast. James Garner plays Wyatt Earp. Jason Ro-bards is Doc Holliday at his consumptive best, and Robert Ryan plays Ike Clanton. Also featured is a young John Voight in his film debut.
