Walking Tall is a 1973 American action film directed by Phil Karlson and starring Joe Don Baker as Buford Pusser, a former professional wrestler turned sheriff in a small town in Tennessee. The film is based on the true story of Pusser, who fought against corruption and organized crime in his town.
Walking Tall was a box office hit and spawned two sequels, as well as a 2004 remake starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. The film's iconic scene, in which Pusser wields a large wooden stick and marches down the street to confront the corrupt and violent establishment, has since become a pop culture phenomenon and symbol of vigilante justice.
Overall, Walking Tall is considered a classic of the "revenge drama" genre and an example of 1970s gritty action filmmaking. It addresses issues such as political corruption, police brutality, and small-town hypocrisy. The film also features a memorable soundtrack by composer Fred D. Myrow, which includes the popular song "Walking Tall."
