1954 · 77 min · Crime, Thriller
The tranquility of a small town is marred only by sheriff Tod Shaw's unsuccessful courtship of widow Ellen Benson, a pacifist who can't abide guns and those who use them. But violence descends on Ellen's household willy-nilly when the U.S. President passes through town... and slightly psycho hired assassin John Baron finds the Benson home ideal for an ambush.
Directed by Lewis Allen. Starring Frank Sinatra, Sterling Hayden, James Gleason, Nancy Gates and Kim Charney.

Fly to any satellite to make it the new centre and keep exploring.
