3:10 to Yuma

Movie / Show Details

A struggling rancher agrees to transport a captured outlaw to the train station in Yuma, Arizona in this 1957 western thriller directed by Delmer Daves. Based on an Elmore Leonard story, the film follows a tense battle of wills between Van Heflin’s reluctant hero and Glenn Ford’s charming but ruthless criminal as they wait for the prison train while the outlaw’s gang closes in. Set against harsh desert landscapes and deserted towns, the narrative strips down to its essentials: two men locked in a psychological duel where courage and cunning collide, with violence threatening to erupt at any moment.

This is a single-disc DVD presentation of the film, which runs 92 minutes and carries a US Approved rating from Columbia Pictures. Ford delivers one of his finest performances as a killer with polite manners and an unexpected code of honor, while the sparse cinematography creates a brittle tension throughout.
