Posse (Special Edition)

United States Marshal Howard Nightingale is a law and order and publicity man. He doesn’t simply capture outlaws. He makes sure a photographer is around to record the arrests and spread his fame. Now Nightingale, who aspires to the Senate, is out to nab his #1 prey: cool-witted robber Jack Strawhorn. “If I don’t get him, I don’t get elected,” he says. The mighty Kirk Douglas (who also produced and directed) stars as Nightingale and the wicked Bruce Dern is Strawhorn in Posse, an exciting roundup of action, humor and sly political skepticism. Bo Hopkins, James Stacy, Luke Askew and Alfonso Arau also star in this crafty western that asks: Just who is the real bad guy?
