Stranger on the Run is a 1967 American made-for-television western drama film directed by Don Siegel and starring Henry Fonda, Anne Baxter and Michael Parks. In some countries it premiered in cinemas.

Plot

Former inmate and alcoholic Ben Chamberlain (Fonda) comes to a town inquiring about a woman. When she is found dead, Sheriff McKay (Parks), at the suggestion of his friend Hotchkiss (Dan Duryea), organises a human hunting party, incorrectly thinking that Chamberlain is the culprit.

Chamberlain must cross the desert and reach the border. McKay gets there before him. Chamberlain comes across a homesteader (Baxter) and they start to develop a connection, but this is quickly cut short when the posse arrives.
