The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean (1972)

The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean is a 1972 Western starring Paul Newman as the title character, an eccentric lawman who doled out his own unique brand of justice to a small Texas town. Although the real life Bean died in 1903, the opening title card mentions that this film was meant to tell his story the way he probably would want it to be told. The film was directed by John Huston from a screenplay writted by John Milius and co-starred Ned Beatty, Stacy Keach, and Victoria Principal in her movie debut.


The following weapons were used in the film The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean:
