Looking at celebrated films like Buchanan Rides Alone (1958) and Comanche Station (1960), as well as at lesser-known works like Escape in the Fog (1945) and Behind Locked Doors (1948), this book also addresses Boetticher''s influential television work on the James Garner series Maverick, and Boetticher''s continuing aesthetic influence on contemporary TV classics like Breaking Bad.
