Ride Lonesome
Ride Lonesome is a 1959 Randolph Scott Western. It also stars Karen Steele (who has a Star Trek connection from Mudd's Women), Pernell Roberts (the oldest Cartwright son on Bonanza), Lee Van Cleef (one of our favorites), James Coburn (a personal favorite), James Best (Winchester '73, an unnamed crew member in Forbidden Planet) and Roy Jenson (who has a Star Trek original series connection). If you like traditional Westerns, you'll like this.
