A not very convincing social conscience western, but one that has its heart in the right place to get a better take on the racial attitudes of the period. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

08/28/2023 very good western. Try it. James Welch Henderson Arkansas 8/23/2023 See more Steve D @RT35616104 07/09/2023 Forgettable but inoffensive. See more 09/29/2013 131115: McCrea has a voice you'll not soon forget. Kind of a silly story and a bit predictable. Didn't find Stanwyck convincing as a hostage, she was just too well groomed. Worth a one watch but that's about it. See more 09/27/2013 good western gr8 cast See more 02/05/2013 Hokey western is made watchable by it's lead performers.
