The Comeback Trail

Max Barber, a man in debt to a mob boss, creates an insurance fraud by casting the washed up, suicidal cowboy movie star, Duke Montana, in a poorly written Western. Max intends to kill Duke during the first days of filming, but Duke somehow rises to the occasion, redeems his past misdeeds and brings Max and others along on the same journey. Based on the 1982 film of the same name.
