IMDb plot summary: After the murder of his fiancée, a Wyoming ranch hand sets out to find her killer.
Directed by Fritz Lang. Starring Marlene Dietrich, Arthur Kennedy, Mel Ferrer, and Gloria Henry.
This is some sort of western noir with abrupt moments where the story is told through background song. It's such a weird mix of genres and feels really off until about the halfway mark, when it picks up a little. I feel like it thought it had more to say than it actually did, and so it ultimately felt pretty hollow. Plus, that's a terrible title.
How it entered my Flickchart:
Rancho Notorious < They Made Me a Fugitive
Rancho Notorious > Maggie's Plan
Rancho Notorious < Birdman of Alcatraz
Rancho Notorious > A Man Called Peter
Rancho Notorious < What Lies Beneath

Final spot: #1809 out of 2737.
