Die Dame und der Killer (1960)
Inspiriert von einem Bestseller des Westernautors Louis L'Amour ist dieser Film eine temporeiche Komödie um eine fahrende Schauspielertruppe in den 80er des 19. Jahrhunderts. Die Künstler legen sich nicht nur bei ihren Auftritten ins Zeug, sondern auch bei ihren Auseinandersetzungen mit aufgebrachten Bürgern, wütenden Gläubigern und misstrauischen Sheriffs. Auf der verzweifelten Suche nach einer zugkräftigeren Nummer zur Unterhaltung ihrer Zuschauer lassen die komischen Missgeschicke der beiden Leiter der Theatertruppe, Angela Rossini und Tom Healy, bald erahnen, warum der Westen damals "wild" war.
