| Notes: | Destry is a hard but fair man who is framed for a robbery and sent to prison. When he gets down, he hunts down the members of the jury and ruins or embarrasses them — or kills them if they put up a fight. But then he discovers it was his friend Chester Bent, who committed the crime and framed him. He goes after Bent and is beaten but kills him with a lucky shot. He gives up his fighting ways and settles down with his girl Charlie. |
