Tension at Table Rock (1956)
Director: Charles Marquis Warren
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Agreeably taut minor Western has outlaw Egan riding into town and saving nervy lawman Mitchell's bacon by seeing off a gang of gung-ho desperadoes. The down side is that he falls for sheriff's wife Malone. An above-average RKO programmer that works well within its own rather derivative limits, it's buoyed by lots of familiar faces in the supporting cast. Look out, in particular, for young DeForest Kelley, a good decade before he picked up his galactic stethoscope as Star Trek's Bones.Author:
