Hangtown

In "HANGTOWN," acclaimed writer Michael Bailey explores the dark history of a placer mining town during the Gold Rush era. Drawing inspiration from true events, this historical western uncovers the swift and often unlawful hangings that shaped the community from 1848 to 1850, leaving a lingering impact on what is now Placerville, California. This homage to literary greats Charles Portis and Cormac McCarthy delves into the gritty realities of justice and violence in a tumultuous period.
