High Plains Drifter Movie
A mysterious drifter (Clint Eastwood) rides into the small mining town of Lago, Arizona on a black horse. The rider has neither name, nor compassion, nor fear... Attacked by three gunslingers, the Stranger guns down them and then rapes a local woman named Callie Travers (Marianna Hill). The scared townspeople hire him to protect them from merciless outlaws, Stacey Bridges (Geoffrey Lewis), Bill Borders (Scott Walker) and Cole Carlin (Anthony James), who are to be released from the jail in Yuma in a few days and are about to return to Lago to get their vengeance. The Stranger agrees to defend the cowardly townsfolk because he has his own agenda. A few years ago when he was an officer of the law, the felons beat him within an inch of his life and none of Lago's residents tried to go to his assistance...
