Lone Star is a 1952 American Western film directed by Vincent Sherman and starring Clark Gable, Ava Gardner, Broderick Crawford, Ed Begley and Lionel Barrymore.

Production

Lone Star was to be the initial offering of Hudson Pictures, a company formed by Gable and Z. Wayne Griffin. Screenwriter Borden Chase later said: "Vincent Sherman was the only one who destroyed a picture of mine completely. ... I wanted George Sherman. You see, Gable decided that he didn't want to have his own company and he sold the picture back to Metro. Dore Schary and I have never been close friends.

When Gable and Griffin sold the property back to Metro for $300,000 it kept Clark on as star and Griffin on as producer. Gable was also going through a divorce at the time, so producing was of no interest to him.
