	'''''Tom Horn''''' is a 1980 Western that marked the second to last movie that [[Steve McQueen]] starred in prior to his passing. This movie is a somewhat fictionalized account of a former scout and gunman who was found guilty of the 1901 murder of a fourteen year old sheepherder named Willie Nickell in Wyoming. Horn was executed for the murder in 1903. Horn served as a civilian Army scout in the Apache wars in Arizona and served as a Pinkerton detective later.He is believed to have been involved in the Johnson County War on the side of the private army funded by the cattle barons. He was working (again) for cattle barons in Wyoming at the time of Willie Nickell's murder. Part of his work was to deal with sheep farmers. There is much myth and controversy surrounding Tom Horn, and the film incorporates both myth and what was then current historical research. Though not a success when it was released in the spring of 1980, ''Tom Horn'' has come to assume something of a cult status in the years that have followed. Also notable for featuring the [[Winchester Model 1876]] which is used by McQueen throughout the movie.
