This is an original 29" x 43" Argentine one-sheet for the 1953
film The Lawless Breed based on a story by William Alland
adapted from John Wesley Hardin's original autobiographical account,
screenplay by Bernard Gordon and starring Rock Hudson as John Wesley
Hardin. Plot summary: This is story of John Wesley Hardin, an
American gunfighter who left an autobiographical account of his life
with a local newspaper after he was pardoned and released from prison
in 1896 in Huntsville Texas. The film narrates his youthful
attachment to Jane Bond [Mary Castle], the orphan girl with whom he
grew up, the discipline he underwent as the son of authoritarian
religious father [John McIntire], his crooked gambling habits, his
flight from the law after killing a man named Gus Hanley [Michael
Ansara] in self-defense and his participation in a family cattle drive
to Abilene to avoid the authorities. In Abilene he kills Dirk Hanley
[Lee Van Cleef], also in self-defense, then buys a wedding dress for
Jane Bond and takes it back to her at his family home. After Jane is
killed by a posse pursuing Hardin, he spends years on the run with
Rosie McCoy [Julie Adams] before the Texas Rangers catch up with him
in Kansas. The rangers do not catch him there and from Kansas he
moves with Rosie to Pollard Alabama, where he marries her and has a
child with her under the name J. Swain. The rangers arrest him there
and he is tried, convicted and sentenced to 25 years in prison, though
he insisted until the end the killing was in self-defense.
