Revolvermänner: Directed by Sidney Salkow. With Buster Crabbe, Ann Robinson, Neville Brand, Michael Ansara. After 6 years in the cavalry, Chad Santee plans to raise cattle with his brother Jubal but Jubal is involved in a different line of work.

“Buster Crabbe and Neville Brand play a pair of brothers named Santee in Gun Brothers. Crabbe has served in the cavalry while Brand says he now has a ranch in the Wyoming territory. But Brand is really an outlaw and cattle rustling is only one of his gangu0026#39;s enterprises. Crabbe who hoped to partner with his brother figures that out quickly, but wonu0026#39;t rat him out to law enforcement.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWhich puts him in a highly vulnerable position with only saloon singer Ann Robinson as a real ally. It all works out in the end, but not after a lot of blood is spilled in this independent B western from United Artists.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eCrabbe was a much better actor than a lot give him credit for and this is a film he shows it. He and Neville Brand play beautifully off each other as the good and bad brother Santee.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSome familiar faces are in this one. Michael Ansara as a mixed race outlaw and Brandu0026#39;s right hand is a villain without any redeemable qualities. One of the best to come along of that breed until Lee Marvin played the title role in The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. Roy Barcroft who was in about a gazillion westerns for Republic for once is on the side of the law as a sheriff. Slim Pickens has a small role as a fur trapper and Lita Milan who had one tempestuous marriage to Rory Calhoun plays an Indian maid who also falls for Crabbe while sheu0026#39;s Ansarau0026#39;s property and I do mean property.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eLots of gun play and violence to satisfy any B western fan and a bit of stargazing as well.”
