3:10 to Yuma (2007)
In 1884 Arizona, Dan Evans is a poor rancher and Civil War veteran who owes money to the wealthy Glen Hollander. One night, Hollander’s men burn down his barn and scatter his cattle as a warning to pay his debts. The next morning Evans and his two sons are searching for their lost herd when they stumble upon Ben Wade and his gang robbing an armored stagecoach staffed by Pinkertons. Wade sees Evans and his two sons watching from the hills and decides that they aren’t a threat to his gang, so Wade takes their horses, promising to leave them tied up “on the road to Bisbee”, so that Evans can recover them, but won’t be able to give warning immediately. After Wade’s gang departs, Evans rescues the lone surviving coach guard, Byron McElroy, left alive but severely wounded.
Wade and his gang ride to Bisbee to drink at the local saloon and divide up the loot. The gang departs but Wade chooses to stay behind to enjoy the company of the barmaid. Evans brings McElroy to veterinarian/lawman Doc Potter, then tries in vain to negotiate his debt with Hollander. Evans then finds Wade emerging from an upstairs room in the saloon and coaxes a few dollars from Wade over the trouble he caused Evans. As the two talk, lawmen surround the saloon and arrest Wade. Grayson Butterfield, the railroad’s representative, hires a posse consisting of McElroy, Potter, Tucker (one of Hollander’s men), and Evans to take Wade to Contention, where Wade is to be put on the 3:10 afternoon train to Yuma Territorial Prison. Evans asks for $200 (equivalent to $5,600 in 2021) to deliver Wade, which Butterfield agrees to. The group meet at Evans’ ranch, where McElroy arranges for a decoy wagon to distract Wade’s gang.
