Synopsis
Walking Tall is a 1973 American action semi-biopic film of Sheriff Buford Pusser, a former professional wrestler-turned-lawman in McNairy County, Tennessee. It starred Joe Don Baker as Pusser. Tennessee sheriff Buford Pusser almost single-handily cleaned up his small town of crime and corruption, but at a personal cost of his family life and nearly his own life.
