It's one of many films I wish to make in the near future. The film will be about a gang of outlaws led by Rex Kramer who rob a bank in the town of Rio Negro in California in 1897. My character, Kramer, is later betrayed after being shot in the back. The rest of the gang, Jug Williams, Clyde Parker, Red Yates, Moe Fowler, Johnny Garth, Mexican Paul, and Silas Duffy all head out for Mexico. Duffy is now the new leader of the gang and they have set their sights on a small church in Santa Cruz. They want to hide their gold there but when the padre, Padre Miguel, finds out it's been stolen, he won't let them. Duffy threatens to kill Padre Miguel if he doesn't let them hide the gold and the priest reluctantly gives in. In the meantime, Rex is nursed back to health by a widow who finds out later from her brother that he's a wanted outlaw. He tells her what his plans are and that once he's done he will mend his ways and marry her. He changes his name to Rex Kelly and sets off after his former gang. With the help of an alcoholic blacksmith, Pedro Ortiz, and a circus performer, Jose, Rex enters the town of Santa Cruz where he is told by the Mexican Army that Silas Duffy and the gang are holding Padre Miguel and the others hostage and that they have hidden the gold inside the church. They also tell him that if he refuses to leave Santa Cruz, Duffy will kill the hostages. But Rex refuses to leave anyway, saying that he won't leave until he gets what's he after. But will he get it in time? Or will Silas Duffy determine the town's fate? You'll have to see for yourselves. As always, wish me luck.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6189974967302818072.post-90318906513415467862012-01-26T10:42:39.322-08:002012-01-26T10:42:39.322-08:00Corrections noted and changed.
