Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Invitation to a Gunfighter is a 1964 DeLuxe Color Western film directed by Richard Wilson (not that one), starring Yul Brynner and George Segal.In the aftermath of the costly Civil War, the veteran Confederate Army soldier, Matt Weaver, returns to his hometown of New Mexico and his dusty ancestral farmhouse, only to discover that his property has been confiscated and resold by the immoral town boss, Sam Brewster. As the hamlet's only Rebel trooper attempts to repossess his ranch, an unfortunate complication will have the suave Creole gunslinger, Jules Gaspard d'Estaing, hot on his trail, paid by the crooked land baron to kill Weaver. Nevertheless, right from the start, the mysterious hired gun seems to have plans of his own. Will Jules finish what he got paid for?

As the Good Book Says...: Morally Bankrupt Banker Sam Brewster cements his status as a hypocrite by frequently quoting Bible verses to justify his bigoted prejudices, racism and corrupt methods.

Blasting It Out of Their Hands: When Jules forces Brewster to Kneel Before Zod, The Sheriff starts to draw on him from behind. Jules spins and shoots the gun out of the sheriff's hand—leaving his hand injured—because he respects him. the same is not true of Crane, the next man to draw on him, and Jules shoots him dead. No one else tries to draw after that.

Badass in a Nice Suit: Jules Gaspard d'Estaing cements his status as a Cultured Badass by wearing a finely tailored black suit that makes him look more like a Professional Gambler than a gunfighter, and makes him stand out admidst the roughly garbed yokels.

Bald Head of Toughness: Cultured Badass Jules Gaspard d'Estaing, the eponymous, is easily the physically and mentally toughest character in the film, and is bald as an egg (being played by Yul Brynner).
