Big Jim McLain (Warner Brothers, 1952 [1]) was a John Wayne film starring Wayne and James Arness as HUAC investigators hunting down communists in the post-war Hawaii organized labor scene. The film has developed something of a cult following due to its now-campy red scare theme. Interestingly, the German version of the movie dispenses with the communist angle, making the villains drug dealers instead. This was achieved entirely through script changes and dubbing.
