Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe Last of the Fast Guns (1958) is an American Western film directed by George Sherman and written by David P. Harmon. The film stars Jock Mahoney, Gilbert Roland, Linda Cristal, Eduard Franz, Lorne Greene and Carl Benton Reid. The film was released in July 1958, by Universal Pictures.
- GoofsTwo silver dollars play a part in this film. It is explained that they are "1794 Silver Dollars, the first from the US Mint." However what is actually displayed in the movie is the reverse side of a US silver dollar known as the Morgan Dollar, after its designer, George Morgan. This dollar was not minted until 1878 (Actually 1878-1904 and 1921.) Therefore, actual 1794 dollar coins were not shown.
- Quotes
Maria O'Reilly: Do you know that every time you look at me, I feel like I am running around without any clothes on?
Brad Ellison: Gonna get mighty chilly when the sun goes down.
Featured review
A gunfighter combs Mexico for the missing brother of an industrialist, and gets the usual discouragement and trouble in the form of flying lead!
Slightly unusual western that plods a little and can be talky, however there are some punchy dialogue, good location atmosphere and Gilbert Roland, who can make anything watchable- Jock Mahoney makes a good hero, straight to the point and staccato in delivery. Ok western, passes the time adequately, though there's a neat twist at the end.
