3:10 to Yuma

directed by James Mangold

with Christian Bale, Russell Crowe, Gretchen Mol, Peter Fonda

James Mangold's (Walk the Line, Girl, Interrupted) 3:10 to Yuma follows Dan Evans (Christian Bale), a Civil War veteran and farmer who has fallen on hard times, as he takes a job to transport renowned vigilante Ben Wade (Russell Crowe) to a train that will take him to his trial, and a certain death sentence. During the journey, they venture through dangerous Indian territory, encounter resistance from Wade's posse, and battle bounty hunters eager to cash in on Wade's incarceration. Mangold transforms the traditional Western into a modern tale, as he "builds sensational, studied characterizations, brilliant pacing, and blistering action."
