I don't know the girl or the movie. But the gun is a nickle plated 3rd Issue Colt Detective Special.

Don't know why this is bothering me, but isn't the thompson smg an open bolt?

So, is that just not ready to fire, or what?

He will need to cock it. 

I'm curious as to why the compensator on the end of the barrel is upside down.

Texas Rangers circa 1907, that's Frank Hamer on the top left with his 1894 Winchester. Along with police officers from Louisiana and Texas, Hamer was the man that brought down Bonnie & Clyde. The man sitting bottom right with the Luger is John H. Rogers, the man that hired Hamer into the Rangers.

Hamer used a Remington model 8 chambered in .35 Remington in the roadside ambush of Bonnie & Clyde.

Robert Mitchum, what movie and revolver?

If you want to learn more about Frank Hamer, I highly suggest his biography "Texas Ranger" by John Boessenecker. The man led a very interesting life.
