The Dead and the Quick

107 Min.
1995
Rated R
Action, Adventure, Drama

**********Spoiler Alert***********
So this movie is really good if you like westerns. This girl named Ellen (Sharon Stone) watched a man (Gene Hackman) named Herod who later becomes mayor kill her father (Gary Sinise) who was a marshall. She grows up wanting revenge. Then the mayor creates this contest where people dual on the street. She participates and the mayor makes the pastor (Russell Crowe) participate as well. The mayor's a very ruthless man and even duels against his own son (Leonardo DiCaprio). His son dies and this makes Ellen just want to kill the mayor more. Right after this fight, the mayor makes the pastor which is someone who has helped Ellen all through the duels and Ellen fight. Neither one was going to draw their guns but the mayor said that at the count of 10, if neither of them shot the other, he would have his gunmen shoot them down. So Cort (the pastor) drew his gun and shot her. They had planned for her to pretend to die. Then, when the mayor and Cort fight at the end, she walks in and kills the mayor. Then she makes Cort the new marshall. That's the short version but the movie is so much better.
