steve d I love Baxter but the story didn't work for me. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member 160119: A little fun. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Colorful western comedy/adventure is no classic but has enough pleasures to make it worth sitting through. Aside from Marilyn Monroe in one of her last unbilled bits this has a charming Dan Dailey, a feisty Anne Baxter and some beautiful scenery. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Colorful, fast-moving western comedy (with music!); Marilyn Monroe has a small part as a chorus girl. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Western comedy with a light-hearted enough story that is easy to enjoy. There's some fairly big names for the time involved as well which definately adds to the overall flavour and quirkiness. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member well umn just seen this movie 4 the 1st time n think that this is a good movie 2 watch...its got a good cast of actors/actressess throughout this movie...i think that anne baxter, arthur hunnicutt, charles kemper, chier yowlachie, connie gilchrist, dan dailey, marilyn monroe, rory calhoun, victor sen yung play good roles/parts throguhout this movie its a really good 1950's movie with a good cast throughout this movie..its a good drama/action/adventure/comedy movie 2 watch Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews
