Day of the Outlaw

In the forsaken town of Bitters, Wyoming, tensions between homesteaders and cattlemen are high. When a conflict erupts between a farmer and ruthless rancher Blaise Starrett (Robert Ryan), it appears that the icy relations in snow-covered Bitters are in danger of heating to a boil. But as a gang of outlaws under the leadership of Jack Bruhn (Burl Ives) rides into town and begins to further threaten the town's way of life, Starrett must find a way to save the town, its citizenry-and his own soul.
