Synopsis

Drifter Matt Fletcher returns to the failing border farm run by the children of the people who raised him. He brings an Appaloosa stallion and enough money to start a horse ranch. But vindictive Mexican hellion Chuy Medina steals the horse and rides into Mexico with it. —DVDtalk.com

Seen for the third or the fourth time I think. But, as the last times, the one scene of The Appaloosa that will stay in my memory will be the arm wrestling's. But you may also appreciate Emilio ( yes!, the great Mexican director) Fernandez's smile, Marlon (yes!, Superman's father) Brando's mumbles or John (194 movies to date!) Saxon's moustache. For my part, The Appaloosa is already - once again- almost forgotten. Unfortunately.
