Pic of the Day: “Naked Gun” revisited

Posted by Marisa on October 1, 2012

We kick off the month of October with another look at Naked Gun (1956), an entertaining low-budget Western also known as The Hanging Judge. Timothy’s hot-tempered henchman Hartman has just hit the floor hard during a big fight. He’s not too happy about it either.

This being a Western from the ’50s, we would like to take this rather roundabout opportunity to wish one of our favorite blogs, 50 Westerns From The ’50s, a very happy third anniversary in cyberspace! Check it out today if you haven’t already – it’s a veritable treasure trove of 1950s Western goodness!

Today we revisit Naked Gun (1956) – not the Leslie Nielsen laugh-fest, but the low-budget Western also known as The Hanging Judge. Tim has a rather substantial role as Hartman, the bad guy’s henchman. Here saloon proprietress Veda Ann Borg oversees a shady card game.

The fellow in black without a hat is Tom Brown, who began his career as a child model, and later an actor. He modeled for Buster Brown Shoes, Arrow shirts and Buick.
