Description by OLDIES.com:

Where cattle drives end, trouble begins. Thirsty, trigger-happy cowmen pour into Dodge City, where might too often makes right. There ought to be a law in this corrupt, bullet-riddled town. Once trail boss Wade Hatton (Errol Flynn) pins on a badge, there is.

In his first of eight Westerns, Flynn is as able with a six-shooter as he was with a swashbuckler's sword. He confronts lynch mobs, slams outlaws into jail and escapes (along with co-star Olivia de Havilland) a fiery, locked railroad car. Cheered for Flynn's sagebrush debut, its vivid Technicolor look and spectacular saloon brawl that may have employed every available stuntperson in Hollywood, Dodge City later gained another distinction when it inspired Mel Brooks' cowboy parody Blazing Saddles. Double feature, anyone?

Product Description:

Michael Curtiz's epic Western DODGE CITY stars Errol Flynn as Wade Hatton, a wagon master turned sheriff who tames a cow town at the end of a railroad line. Flynn brings his trademark dashing charisma to the role of the justice-seeking sheriff, and Olivia de Havilland is both tough and lovely as Hatton’s ally and love interest. The film also features one of the liveliest bar room brawls in cinematic history.
