I killed history

I Killed Wild Bill Hickok (1956)

Directed by Richard Talmadge this film stars it's writer Johnny Carpenter, Denver Pyle, Virginia Gibson and Tom Brown. A former Confederate soldier starts over catching wild horses and selling them but local ruffians have other ideas.

While the title character may be a historical figure this film has no basis in history and a completely fictitious plot. The plot is fairly basic but the script lacks any sort of character development and has the usual poor attitude to Native Americans. I watched a HD version of this film but the image quality is pretty terrible and at times it is even hard to tell which character is which.


1/5
