Robert Peter "Robbie" Williams (born 13 February 1974) is an English singer-songwriter, vocal coach and occasional actor. He is a member of the pop group Take That.
Williams rose to fame in the band's first run in the early- to mid-1990s. After many disagreements with the management and certain group members, Williams left the group in 1995 to launch his solo career. On 15 July 2010, it was announced he had rejoined Take That and that the group intended to release a new album in November 2010 which became the second fastest-selling album of all-time in UK chart history and the fastest-selling record of the century.
Williams has sold over 70 million records worldwide, which ranks him among the best-selling music artists worldwide. He is the best-selling British solo artist in the United Kingdom and the best selling non-Latino artist in Latin America. Six of his albums are among the top 100 biggest-selling albums in the United Kingdom. He has also been honoured with seventeen BRIT Awards—more than any other artist—and seven ECHO Awards. In 2004, he was inducted into the UK Music Hall of Fame after being voted as the "Greatest Artist of the 1990s."

Plot: The death penalty has been abolished and the punishment for murder, however slight, is life in prison. These two factors lead to a problem: prison over-population. A solution is needed... Prisoners in groups of nine are taken to an off-shore facility and locked in a room. There, supervised by an enigmatic Director and his brutish Assistant, the nine are forced to participate in a game that will reward the last one standing with a full government pardon. The stakes are high and the reward great. But does the end justify the means? Only one will find out.

Plot: Rocky Mulloy, back in town after serving 5 years of a life sentence for armed robbery, hopes to clear his friend Danny Morgan who's still in prison for the same crime. It won't be easy. Even the witness who cleared Rocky thinks he's guilty; Danny's glamorous wife Nancy, living in a sleazy trailer court, seems lukewarm about getting Danny back; cynical cop Gus Cobb just wants to stir things up in hopes that the missing "hot" $100,000 will surface. Plenty of tough talk, night scenes, deceptive dames and double crosses in this typical film noir.

Plot: Wells Fargo sends Johnny Macklin ('Johnny Mack Brown' (qv)) to Rimrock to investigate stage hold-ups and general lawlessness which, according to local agent Tom Jamison ('Steve Clark (I)' (qv)) is caused by saloon owner Steve Corbin ('Tristram Coffin' (qv)) and his henchmen Duke Sprague ('Marshall Reed (I)' (qv)) and Ace Jenkins ('Terry Frost (I)' (qv)). When Steve kills a man he had cheated in a poker game, the Rimrock Chronicle, owned by Idaho Jim Foster ('Raymond Hatton' (qv)) and edited by his daughter, Diane ('Reno Browne' (qv)), starts a vigilante movement to clean up the town. Jamison, also the mayor, swears Johnny in as the town marshal. Johnny lets henchman Slats Harper ('Lynton Brent' (qv)) overhear information about a fictitious gold shipment, and traps some of Steve's men when they attempt a hold-up. Steve packs the jury and his men are set free. Saloon singer Kitty Malone ('Claudia Drake' (qv)), who is in love with Steve, becomes jealous of Flo Vickerk ('Christine McIntyre (I)' (qv)), and warns Johnny that three gunmen have been imported to kill him. Flo tells Steve that Kitty is an informant, and Steve plans a double murder of Kitty and Johnny.

Plot: Bill Whitlock, the warden of a large prison, has a decision to make; the only way he can keep an innocent man, Jimmy Hutchins, from dying in the electric chair is to return some stolen loot that has come into his possession. It is quite a large sum, so his conscience has to work over-time, and that may not sway him, either.
