Three brothers -- no-nonsense leader Will Keough (Fred MacMurray), rebellious Harry (Dean Stockwell) and pacifist mama's boy Bless (Jeffrey Hunter) -- bend their family to breaking point as their differing personalities clash during a cattle drive. It doesn't help that Will and Harry think Bless is a coward, believing that his inaction during a violent situation got their father killed. When rustlers attack the Keough herd, Bless is forced once again into a dangerous confrontation.

Audience Member Way too much overacting for a Western, and a flimsy story to boot. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Family drama in the wild west. A simmering tale of love and gun play that never gets going despite three well known faces as brothers. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member pretty decient western Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
