(1960) Helter in Pink Tights WESTERN DRAMA

Adapted from a novel by Loius L'Amour has wagon train theater troupe, lead by Thomas 'Tom' Healy (Anthony Quinn) along with his love interest, Angela Rossini (Sophia Loren) barely making it past the borderline, stepping past across state lines to another town. We find out later that the theater troupe had taken costumes they have not paid for. At the same time an expert hired gun, Mabry (Steve Forrest) is employed to take out another rival competitor, from another rival town. It is during then Mabry himself becomes a target. Things become complicated once the town who employed the outlaw gunfighter to take out some people becomes a target himself, just because Mabry's asking price was too much. And that the corrupt businessman thought it'd be cheaper if he were to hire not as good outlaws to take him out.

It starts out interesting but goes down in a downward spiral that also involves dangerous natives.
