El forastero (1940)
Texas, 1880, años agitados tras la Guerra Civil estadounidense. El famoso juez Roy Bean (Walter Brennan), caprichoso y de singular moralidad, cabecilla de los ganaderos, y autodenominado "la única ley al oeste de Pecos", acusa falsamente a un forastero llamado Cole Harden (Gary Cooper) de robar un caballo. Condenado a la horca tras el juicio, Cole Harden ideará un plan para librarse de la muerte: el juez siente una tremenda admiración por una famosa actriz a la que el sentenciado a muerte dice conocer.
