Framed is a 1975 American crime neo noir film directed by Phil Karlson and starring Joe Don Baker[1] and Conny Van Dyke.

Returning home to Tennessee from a trip to Texas, nightclub owner and gambler Ron Lewis happens across a shooting and is nearly shot himself.

Behind bars, Lewis is befriended by mob boss Sal Viccarone and hit man Vince Greeson.

Vince, also out of prison, is contracted to kill Lewis, but decides to help him instead, as does a law-abiding deputy, Sam Perry.

Lewis proceeds to torment and even torture the guilty parties in a number of ways, gaining his revenge and finding out the truth about what really happened the night of the roadside shooting.
