Law And Order is a 1932 American film. The film starred Walter Huston, Harry Carey, Andy Devine, Russell Hopton and Russell Simpson.
The film retells the story of the OK Corral shootout in Tombstone, AZ. It is based on the novel Saint Johnson by W. R. Burnett. Walter Huston plays the part of lawman Frame Johnson, a fictionalized version of Wyatt Earp, and Russell Hopton plays his brother Luther Johnson. One of the best early westerns in its character development, Law and Order features a script by John Huston, Walter's soon to be famous son, and Tom Reed, who provided dialog for many movies in the 1930s and 1940s. Due to changes made during the film's production all the scenes involving actress Lois Wilson were cut prior to the film's release.[1]
