The Silver Whip (20th Century Fox – 1953)
Director: Harmon Jones
Writers: Jack Schaefer (novel), Jesse Lasky Jr. (screenplay)
Stars: Dale Robertson, Rory Calhoun and Robert Wagner

Dale Robertson portrays Race Crim, a stagecoach guard. On Race’s recommendation, the stage boss hires Jess Harker (Wagner) as a driver for a stage loaded with gold. Bandits attack the stage, fight Race and wound Jess. Even though Race kills half the bandits, the surviving gang members steal some of the gold. Jess manages to drive the stage to Silver City with the remaining payload.

Will the stolen gold be recovered? Will Jess keep his job as a stagecoach driver? What will happen to the bandits that got away? Will Race and Jess remain friends? Will the citizens of Silver City take the law into their own hands?

Can’t wait to find out! See you on the 17th.

Also in the cast: Kathleen Crowley, James Millican, Lola Albright, J.M. Kerrigan
