Star in the Dust is a 1956 Technicolor Western film directed by Charles F. Haas starring John Agar, Mamie Van Doren, Richard Boone, Coleen Gray and Leif Erickson.
In the town of Gunlock, sheriff Bill Jorden is due to hang Sam Hall for cattle-stealing. Jorden has to contend, however, with various citizens, including the cowboys who want to rescue Hall and the cattlemen and farmers who want to lynch him. Hall, meanwhile, is planning his escape with girlfriend Nellie.
The film included an early appearance of Clint Eastwood, who played a very small role as a ranch hand.
