The Tall Man, set in the New Mexico Territory of the 1870’s, starred western stalwarts Barry Sullivan (The Road West, Harbormaster) and Clu Gulager (The Virginian, Once an Eagle) in fictionalized tales of the adventures of two famous, and infamous, characters out of the real Wild West. Sullivan plays Sheriff Pat Garrett, whose honesty and forthrightness led to his nickname, “The Tall Man,” and Gulager takes on the role of William H. Bonney, better known as Billy the Kid, a young gunfighter with a penchant for trouble.
