Hombre (1967)

Hombre is the classic 1967 Western starring Paul Newman as John Russell, a white man raised by Apache Indians who now must try to assimilate back into the non-Indian culture. After selling away his inheritance and putting out some townsfolk, he finds himself riding out of town with the very same people. When the stagecoach is ambushed, the passengers must now depend on Russell to survive. The film was the sixth collaboration between Newman and director Martin Ritt (Hud) and was based on a novel by Elmore Leonard (who also wrote Get Shorty).


The following weapons were used in the film Hombre:

Movie prop Colt Police Positive

In the final confrontation, Russell's Single Action Army is replaced in some shots with what appears to be double-action, modern Colt Police Positive revolver modified to resemble the SAA. This kind of prop was frequently used in Westerns (see the Police Positive below), when an actor wasn't able to use a Single Action Army with the speed required by the script.
