The White Avenger (1962)

In the Wild West Saloon, the Black Gunslinger has just robbed two wretches at cards. Bar singer Kitty helps him with this dark work, but quickly falls out with him over the division of the spoils. In the fight, Kitty takes all the money from Black and would have had a bad time, if the White Avenger didn't come in at the right moment, and defeat the Black villain. White rescues Kitty, but instead of thanks he receives a loud slap from her. Kitty still prefers her Black friend and leaves with him.
