The Hanged Man

Steve Forrest (The Baron) is the gunfighter James Devlin in this tale of redemption and honor set in the Wild West of the 1800s. Sentenced to die by hanging for killing a man, Devlin survives the noose, and discovers he has gained the uncanny ability to read other's minds. His discovery leads him to renounce the way of the gun, and his own lawlessness. When he meets Sharon Acker (Point Blank), a young widow in danger of losing her ranch to a ruthless land baron, Devlin uses his eerie power to come to her defense. Also starring Dean Jagger (Bad Day at Black Rock), Will (Jeremiah Johnson), Barbara Luna (Winchester '73) and Cameron Mitchell (High Chaparral).
