Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 21, 2013 In this post-Civil War drama Yul Brynner portrays a smooth gun-for- hire sent to kill an ex-Rebel soldier (George Segal) who is stirring up trouble in this intriguing offbeat western. But it's a classical movie for the ones who dream of the old times of The Far West 'n want to kill an hour 'n not fall asleep. I found this a mediocre western that did not do the genre any favours. Nice western movie. Please try againSorry, we failed to record your vote. His theatre background is very evident in this film which could be easily transposed to the stage.

Invitation to a Gunfighter was made before I was born. None of the few deaths in it are gruesome - and each is a significant addition to the story. A nice moment in front of my T V, watching this film. In fact, Invitation to a Gunfighter is a actually a good, suspenseful western tale, but most importantly, it's a perfect vehicle for Brynner's trademark Yul Brynnerness.A town hires a gunfighter to protect them from a returning criminal, only for said gunfighter to realise how terrible they are and that the criminal might not be all that bad.The plotline has since been outdone by Clint Eastwood's superbly vicious Worth it just to see Yul Brenner spend, what feels like 10 satisfying minutes smashing up the town and speaking one liners.A Stanley Kramer production that feels like what you'd get if you blended one of Kramer's "social conscience" productions with a spaghetti western. Matt Weaver is now back and wants his house back even if he has to die. Please try againSorry, we failed to record your vote. not a shoot -up western ,more story based , it`s still a good western with a good cast ,worth looking at . Lots of great films and plenty of enjoyable routine ones.This is a list of films that I've backed up on to an external hard drive.Making a list because I can. The film is directed by Richard Wilson who also co wrote the script with his wife. Yul Brynner is great in this but all the talking was too much for 10 minutes of action.Good brooding western with Yul a drifter hired to kill a young George Segal who plays a Johnny Reb come home from the civil war to find his home, his wife, and his entire town all either owned or under the thumb of jerk real estate/banking tycoon Pat Hingle...Hingle can't have this dude disturbing things for him, so he hires Yul to off him whipping the town into cheer for him to do so under the guise of nationalism ("He's a no good Johnny Reb who doesn't deserve to find peace and quiet back here at the hometown he left behind.") After he has all the background on all the townspeople, then he shows them all who he really is. Starring Yul Brynner and George Segal, Richard Wilson's 'Invitation to a Gunfighter' is a western gem that really belongs in the list of classics. His theatre background is very evident in this film which could be easily transposed to the stage. The moments he lays eyes on her, he KNOWS she is special. Several twists and turns and surprises at the end. d'Estaing accepts to kill Weaver but he changes his mind... Please try againSorry, we failed to record your vote. I love George Segal, but he's not really in it enough. Klasse wie er den Gunfighter interpretiert. It has an excellent personal drama to go along with the anti-bigotry message. Janice Rule is really good in this, and I appreciated director Richard Wilson was going for something different, but lack of action for most of the movie was a huge negative.This is an attempt to chronicle every single Western film ever made - be…Spaghetti, Euro, American, Mexican, Latin, Ostern, Asian, Comedy, Horror, Acid, Animation, Birth of Cinema, Weird, and more...A listing of the Kino Lorber Studio Classics DVD/Bluray label, dedicated to classic studio "deep cuts". The emphasis is very much on the script and the acting abilities of the cast. This is the same guy that was Pharoah opposite Charlton (Moses) Heston in the epic 10 Commandments. Allerdings muss ich sagen, dass dafür allein Yul Brynner verantwortlich. It's not bad, it's just not that exciting. Solide, knapp über Durchschnitt lautet mein Urteil. A small town in New Mexico is full of Civil War veterans, many of them maimed. Yul Brynner ist bzw. Jules Gaspard ''Jewel'' d'Estaing is so unique, he's going to Santa Fe but he decides to stay in Pecos when he sees Ruth Adams for the first time and then perceives that he can take advantage of the developing situation after the banker Brewster and the townspeople make the decision to hire a gunfighter (a boy named Dancer who escapes after d'Estaing makes a gesture to him) in order to kill the only citizen who joined the Confederate Army. When the Reb returns to his hometown and wants to claim his family farm, the town hires a gunfighter to kill him. The emphasis is very much on the script and the acting abilities of the cast. Invitation To A Gunfighter This interesting, offbeat, and sometimes confusing western stars Brynner as an educated half-black, half-Creole gunfighter named Jules Gaspard D'Estaing.
