Plots(1)
A cowboy yarn with all the usual elements of an innocent man facing mob justice, a powerful cattle baron willing to take the law into his own hands and spectacular High Sierra vistas - but interesting as Douglas's first Western outing. (official distributor synopsis)
Reviews (1)
A small but good story about a marshal who decides not to let people take justice into their own hands. It works as a western, but what makes it even better is the fact that it works as a story. The point here is good, and even though I don't necessarily need happy endings, here it was quite bearable, although a different ending could have had an even stronger impact.
