My favorite of Ladd’s is also “This Gun For Hire” (1942), his breakthrough role after about a 10 year apprenticeship kicking around Hollywood and taking a lot of uncredited roles. This was also the first of the seven films where he co-starred with Veronica Lake.
He starred in quite a few film noir, as we now call it, including some noir westerns. “The Badlanders” (1957) is a wild west caper film based loosely on “The Asphalt Jungle” (1950). “One Foot In Hell” (1960) is a modern hard-boiled revenge drama in western dress-up.
You know you are a star when you get your own comic book.
