American movie icon James Stewart stars in this unconventional western as the son of a legendary lawman who refuses to carry a gun. After a small town's sheriff is killed by banditos, Stewart shows up to bring law and order to the frontier village, despite his aversion to firearms. The great Marlene Dietrich plays Frenchie, the sultry barroom singer who tries to distract Stewart with her feminine wiles.

Expert Review:
In a town run by crooks and a dance-hall queen, Frenchy (Marlene Dietrich), Tom Destry (James Stewart) is the lawman charged with finding who killed the previous sheriff. As soon as he orders milk at the bar and gets sidelined by Frenchy’s no-holds-barred catfight, the taming of the west theme gets shaken up by Dietrich’s sultry turn as a bad woman turned good, Stewart’s sly performance as the gunfighter who believes in the rule of law, and the sparks that fly between them.
