Movie Info
A hard-bitten rancher fights to keep his enormous Colorado spread intact. In order to keep his ranch hands in line and to deter cattle rustles and horse thieves, he frequently devises cruel torments or resorts to hanging. One day he hires a newly arrived Pennsylvania grocery clerk as his newest hand. The greenhorn is appalled by his new employer's brutal methods. Trouble brews when the rookie cowpoke falls in love with his boss's love. This was the last western in which actor James Cagney appeared.

Earns its kudos by showing the rough-and-tumble everyday working life of the cowboy.

Audience Reviews for Tribute to a Bad Man
Cagney elevates this western as a hard driving ranch master who metes out prarie justice. Papas is strong as the love interest of two men but Dubbins is a non-entity as the second lead and hurts the film.
