Western Film Noir Double Feature – Little Big Horn/Rimfire

LITTLE BIG HORN is the story of a Cavalry patrol that discovers a horde of Indians ready to ambush Custer’s 7th Cavalry. They set out to warn Gen. Custer that he is about to embark on a mission of virtual suicide. Gritty and extremely well-acted character studies set this version apart from the familiar telling of a tragedy from U.S. history. 1951 | 86 min* | B&W | 1.33:1 | NR

RIMFIRE the western setting is incidental in this unglamorous, well-written, tale of mystery and suspense. The story involves the death by hanging of The Abilene Kid, who is innocent of all charges.  After death “the Kid” returns to kill off all of those who sentenced him to be hanged. 1949 | 64 min* | B&W | 1.33:1 | NR
