Last Train From Gun Hill (1959) reunited several filmmakers from one of the western genre’s most celebrated classics, Gunfight at the O.K. Corral (1957): producer Hal Wallis, director John Sturges, cinematographer Charles Lang Jr., actor Kirk Douglas and composer Dimitri Tiomkin. Douglas plays Marshal Matt Morgan, whose wife is raped and killed by the son of an old friend, cattle baron Craig Belden (Anthony Quinn). Morgan’s attempt to bring the murderer to justice is the focus of the action, and Carolyn Jones as Belden’s abused mistress adds another dimension to the human drama. Tiomkin’s score?largely based on an unused song?is colorful and melodic in the composer’s trademark western style. This premiere release of Last Train From Gun Hill is newly remastered from 35mm three-track stereo music masters supplemented by cues from the film’s finished monaural music stem, given a light stereo ambiance to enhance listenability. Bonus cues include source music, alternates, and a demo version of Tiomkin’s song (with lyrics by Paul Francis Webster) performed by jazz vocalist Kitty White. Frank K. DeWald’s notes on the production and score are illustrated with numerous film stills selected by designer Jim Titus. 2000 edition.トラックリスト

トラックリスト
先住民の妻を殺された保安官マット（カーク・ダグラス）は、犯人の若者（アール・ホリマン）を逮捕すべくガンヒルに向かう。しかし彼の父親は、マットの友人で今は町一体を力で牛耳る牧場王クレイグ（アンソニー・クイン）だった。犯人の引渡しを要求するマットと、あくまでも息子を守ろうとするクレイグは対立し……。『荒野の七人』『大脱走』などアクション映画の名匠ジョン・スタージェス監督が送る西部劇の名作。日本では『OK牧場の決斗』『ゴーストタウンの決斗』ともに、スタージェス監督の決闘三部作と呼ばれている。犯人の息子を捕らえた主人公が、ホテルから脱出して最終列車に乗り込もうとするまでの緊迫感あふれる演出が素晴らしい。復讐心を抑えて法を遵守しようとする主人公の姿勢が、カーク・ダグラス独特の無表情から見事に伝わってくる。一方クインは役柄的に損ではあるが、ラストの一言でちゃんと華を持たせてはいる。西部劇ファンならずとも必見。監督：ジョン・スタージェス、出演：ジョン・スタージェス、アンソニー・クイン。1959年米。
