The Legend of Tom Dooley is a 1959 American Western film directed by Ted Post and starring Michael Landon, Jo Morrow, Jack Hogan, Richard Rust, Dee Pollock and Ken Lynch. It was based on the 90-year-old folk song "Tom Dooley", which had been inspired by the real-life case of convicted murderer Tom Dula. The ballad, as sung by The Kingston Trio, was a big hit in 1958 and is the theme song of the film.[1] The movie's plot is consistent with the lyrics of the song, but otherwise bears little resemblance to the actual murder case.
