Greenhorn (1972)
Der Westen der USA im Jahre 1866: Der junge Revolverheld Ben (Gary Grimes) besitzt erst seit kurzer Zeit eine Waffe, und obwohl sie sehr günstig war, ist sie sein ganzer Stolz. Um das Handwerk des Viehtreibens zu erlernen, bietet er sich Frank Culpepper (Billy Green Bush) als Cowboy an. Allerdings merkt er schnell, dass seine Mitstreiter kein Interesse haben, ihm den Umgang mit Lasso und Co. beizubringen. Als eines Tages Franks Herde von Viehdieben entführt wird, kann Ben sich beweisen. Er verfolgt die Diebe und kann sie mit seinem Billig-Revolver stellen. Bei der anschließenden Schießerei kommen aber drei der Treiber ums Leben und Ben wird erstmalig mit der harten und tödlichen Realität des Wilden Westens konfrontiert…
