Lonely Man (DVD)

Like Alan Ladd’s Shane and Clint Eastwood’s Unforgiven, The Lonely Man belongs to that saddlebag full of classic films about a gunslinger coming to terms with his infamous past and uncertain future. Grizzled Jack Palance (Attack) stars as Jacob Wade, a notorious outlaw trying to ride the trail of respectability. But where Wade goes, his reputation follows. And so does trouble. Fearful citizens are quick to turn him out of their town. Vengeful killers have vowed to stalk him to his grave. And Wade’s son (Anthony Perkins, Psycho), embittered over his father’s long absence, cannot quell the pain and hate in his heart. Western regulars Neville Brand, Robert Middleton, Elisha Cook Jr., Claude Akins and Lee Van Cleef co-star in this spare, ruggedly entertaining sagebrush saga.
