James Garner’s is terrific, and, like you say Colin, it’s a performance that’s a world away from Jim Rockford or Support Your Local Sheriff/Gunfighter. He played similarly against type (though this time as an outlaw) in the underrated spaghetti western A Man Called Sledge, directed by Vic Morrow.

I think you’re right as well about it being the Earp film no one remembers, which is a real shame as it’s a better film than some of the more well known films about the famous lawman.
