  6. Colorado Territory is a 1949 American Western film noir directed by Raoul Walsh and starring Joel McCrea, Virginia Mayo, and Dorothy Malone. Written by Edmund H. North and John Twist, and based on the novel High Sierra by W.R. Burnett, the film is about an outlaw who is sprung from jail to help pull one last railroad job.

  7. More than just a footnote in film history, Colorado Territory has become a cult favorite because of Walsh's combination of a Western setting, a film noir plot (helped greatly by Sid Hickox's high-contrast black-and-white photography of the New Mexico hills) and the fascinating portrayal of the female lead, one of the toughest women in film history.
