7 Hours of Gunfire is an intriguing Western movie from 1965 that showcases an intense cowboy shootout while highlighting the themes of love, loyalty and honor. The plot revolves around a group of outlaws on the run after robbing a bank in a desert town. The leader of the gang, the ruthless Calvera, is played by talented actor Rik Van Nutter. He is accompanied by an ex-soldier, who goes by the name of Brock, portrayed by Adrian Hoven, and a flirty, deceptive woman named Dolores, played by Gloria Milland.

As the outlaws race through the barren wasteland, they stop at a halfway house in search of a place to lay low. At the house, they encounter a group of cowboys led by Jim, who is portrayed by Robert Woods. Jim is in love with a beautiful, young Mexican woman named Maria, played by Conchita Núñez. Maria is the nanny to Jim's young son and the cowboys are on their way to return her to her hometown.

Upon their arrival, the outlaws challenge Jim and his men to a gunslinging showdown in the town square. What follows is a thrilling day-long battle between the outlaws and the cowboys as they fiercely defend their town from the vicious gang.

The four main characters each add a unique element to the plot. Calvera, the cold and ruthless leader, drives the plot forward with his cunning plan to kill Jim and take over the town.

Brock, the ex-soldier, adds depth to the story as he gradually starts to feel a moral dilemma in their actions. He constantly questions Calvera's motives, and begins to see the cowboys as more than just targets.

Dolores, the deceptive and seductive woman, is a wildcard in the story. Her motivations are unclear, and she plays off of the others' weaknesses to benefit herself.

Jim, the hero of the story, is the embodiment of the classic cowboy: brave, honorable, and fiercely protective of his town and loved ones. He is driven by his love for Maria and his desire to save his home and go back to his peaceful life.

The film is expertly directed by Italian filmmaker, Raffaello Matarazzo, who skillfully captures the tense showdown between the two groups. The action sequences are well-choreographed, and the cinematography effectively transports the audience to the dusty, danger-filled town.

The film also features a notable soundtrack by composer Lallo Gori, which adds to the overall atmosphere of the movie. The music ranges from fast-paced, suspenseful scores to slower, more romantic ballads and effectively enhances the emotions of the characters.

Overall, 7 Hours of Gunfire is an entertaining and thought-provoking Western that has stood the test of time. It offers a unique take on the classic cowboy story with a dynamic cast of characters and an expertly crafted storyline. The film is a must-watch for fans of the genre and anyone looking for an exciting, tension-filled movie experience.
