When cowboy Lefty Brown witnesses the murder of his longtime
partner, the newly elected Senator Edward Johnson, he strikes out to find the
killers and avenge his friend's cold-blooded murder. Tracking the outlaws
across the vast and desolate Montana plains, Lefty stumbles across a young
wannabe gunslinger, Jeremiah, and an old friend, a former hard-drinking pal
turned U.S. Marshall, to help deliver the men to justice. After a gunfight with
the outlaws leaves Jeremiah wounded, Lefty returns home with the names of
Johnson's killers only to find that the governor is accusing him of his
friend’s murder. With the tables turned Lefty must evade the law, get the
Marshall to stop drinking again, and prove his innocence by exposing the
powerful men ultimately responsible for Johnson's death. Written by

As a fan of the western genre films I had high hopes for THE
BALLAD OF LEFTY BROWN. Upon watching, I found another thing. I found a boring
film that failed to keep my attention. I also did not like Bill Pullman’s
character, his performance and felt that the story moved too slowly. Further
more some of the casting choices seemed to puzzle me. So for THE BALLAD OF
LEFTY BROWN I give 2 stars of 5
