On this day in 1954, UNIVERSAL INTERNATIONAL PICTURES released DESTRY. Directed by GEORGE MARSHALL from the novel by MAX BRAND, this B Western starred war hero AUDIE MURPHY as the mild manned savior of a small town in the Old West being overrun by a mob boss and his cronies. The support cast was a who’s-who of classic character actors that included THOMAS MITCHELL, EDGAR BUCHANAN, MARY WICKES, ALAN HALE JR. and LORI NELSON.
