Legend (1995)

In the bustling town of Sheridan, Colorado, the lines between fiction and reality blur as Ernest Pratt, a rough-and-tumble dime-store novelist, is mistaken for his virtuous creation, Nicodemus Legend. A notorious drinker, gambler, and womanizer, Pratt's world is turned upside down when he's thrust into the role of his gallant protagonist, courtesy of the town's mistaken belief and the persuasive powers of his scientist friend, Janos Bartok. Bartok, a disgraced Hungarian genius who once outshone Thomas Edison, sees potential in Pratt's reluctant transformation. With his inventive prowess, he provides Pratt with an array of futuristic gadgets straight out of Legend's adventurous tales, pushing the limits of 1870s technology. His associate, Ramos, becomes the third pillar of this unusual alliance, fueling the illusion of Legend's daring exploits. As Pratt grapples with his newfound persona, he finds himself embroiled in thrilling adventures, unraveling mysteries, apprehending villains, and even stumbling upon scientific discoveries, all while juggling his penchant for bourbon, cigars, and the fairer sex. The trio navigates the wild west, bringing Pratt's dime-novel series to life in a whirlwind of action, ingenuity, and unexpected heroism. In this unique blend of fiction and reality, Sheridan, Colorado becomes the backdrop for the incredible escapades of Nicodemus Legend, with Pratt reluctantly at the helm.
