A Man Called Gannon is a 1968 American Western film directed by James Goldstone starring Tony Franciosa, Michael Sarrazin, Judi West, Susan Oliver, and John Anderson. The film is a remake of Man Without a Star (1955) which was based on the novel Man Without a Star by Dee Linford.
Supporting actors in the film are David Sheiner, James Westerfield, Gavin MacLeod, Eddie Firestone, and Ed Peck.
Cowboy Gannon (Tony Franciosa) rescues Jess Washburn (Michael Sarrazin) from being run over by a train. Together, they got jobs at the ranch working for Beth (Judi West), who has inherited her late husband's spread. Beth is determined to bring in a massive herd of cattle in one season, sell them and move to the city, but neighboring ranchers are worried her plans will destroy their grazing pasture. Beth seduces Jess into fighting the others, and Gannon helps the neighboring ranchers put up barbed wire.
The railroad scenes were filmed on the Sierra Railroad in Tuolumne County, California.
Brian Hannan wrote in The Gunslingers of '69: Western Movies' Greatest Year that Journey to Shilouh was a bigger flop than A Man Called Gannon.
