Death of a Gunfighter

A small Texas town erupts into chaos when the council replaces the long-serving, traditional marshal with a new, more modern lawman, sparking a violent confrontation between the ousted marshal and his supporters.

In 19th-century Texas, a traditional marshal named Frank Patch faces resistance from modernizing townsfolk after killing a drunk man in self-defense. When Patch refuses to resign, citing his long-term contract, the town leaders turn to violence to eliminate the old-school lawman, fearing his knowledge of their dark secrets.
