What happens

Last Man Standing is a 1996 American neo-Western action film written, produced and directed by Walter Hill. It stars Bruce Willis, Christopher Walken and Bruce Dern. The film is a remake of the 1961 Japanese film Yojimbo by Akira Kurosawa, relocated to the Prohibition-era American South. In the film, a mysterious gunman (Willis) arrives in a small town ruled by rivaling gangs, and sets up about playing them against each other. The film was released by New Line Cinema on September 20, 1996. It received mixed reviews and was a commercial disappointment. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
