The Man from Utah
The Man from Utah
The Marshal sends John Weston to a rodeo to see if he can find out who is killing the rodeo riders who are about to win the prize money. Barton has organized the rodeo and plans to leave with all the prize money put up by the townspeople. When it appears that Weston will beat Barton's rider, he has his men prepare the same fate for him that befell the other riders.

“The Man from Utah” is a straightforward B-Western featuring John Wayne as a near-mythic cowboy brought in to take down a crooked rodeo gang. The dialogue is wooden and the characters barely sketched, but it's a lean, black-and-white tale made for the Saturday matinee crowd—fast, formulaic, and unapologetically old-school.
