Gunfight at the O.K. Corral
Following the success of the Mirisch Productions Joel McCrea Western "Wichita" (1955), Walter Mirisch decided to make another Western with McCrea. Originally entitled "The Bat Masterson Story", Mirisch retitled the film "The Gunfight at Dodge City" to emulate the success of "Gunfight at the O.K. Corral" (1957).
