27. Joan Crawford - Johnny Guitar (1954)

"A man can lie, steal... and even kill. But as long as he hangs on to his pride, he's still a man. All a woman has to do is slip - once. And she's a "tramp!" Must be a great comfort to you to be a man."

For our third week on Joan Crawford, we are looking at the 1954 gritty Western, Johnny Guitar, where love, power, and revenge collide. Directed by Nicholas Ray, the film follows the mysterious gunslinger Johnny Guitar (Sterling Hayden) entangled in a tense love triangle with the fearless saloon owner Vienna (Joan Crawford) and the menacing, and kind of camp, Emma Small (Mercedes McCambridge).
