Justiciero de Kansas

Frontiersman Old Surehand (Stewart Granger) and his faithful friend Old Wabble (Milan Srdoc) are on the trail of a cold-blooded killer with the nickname 'The General' (Larry Pennell), who murdered Old Surehand's brother. On the way Old Surehand and Old Wabble are involved in the running conflict between settlers and the Comanches. Old Surehand can count on the support of his friend and blood brother Winnetou (Pierre Brice), the amiable chief of the Apaches. Bandits commanded by The General rob a train and try to put the blame on the Comanches. When the son of the Comanche chief is killed in town by a sniper, only Old Surehand and Winnetou are able to prevent a war between the Comanches and settlers.

This is the third and I reckon the best of the Winnetou films featuring Stewart Granger - it has plenty of lively action action, some comic touches that work and a lean plot with a couple of unexpected twists. It seems like this is an "origin" tale as far Old SureHand is concerned. His real name is revealed as Johnny Garden. Visually, it's striking. On the down side, Winnetou doesn't show up until 43 minutes, and he and Granger aren't often seen together. Well, it was known they didn't get on behind the scenes; Granger didn't think much of him.
