Synopsis by Mark Deming
Matthew Settle stars in this made-for-TV movie as an Irish immigrant who in 1870 leaves behind a career as a boxer -- and a reputation as a ne'er-do-well -- in New York City to become the marshal of a town on the Kansas frontier. Shaughnessy stars Matthew Settle, Linda Kozlowski, and Michael Jai White; the movie was the pilot for a short-lived TV series.
