If thats what your looking to watch this is a great pick. Some awesome shots of the sierra mountains, and the setting in the high desert is pretty cool. Currently available on tubi 1-11-25 See more 06/17/2023 Good western here you need to try it James Welch, Henderson, Arkansas June 16, 2023 See more ogn d 06/04/2016 the most representative and authentic actor in western movies ever. by far the greatest. See more 01/20/2015 A bit uneven, a bit disjointed times, but overall, a good story that keeps your interest up. Randolph Scott is his usual, wooden self, and Forrest Tucker sometimes seems unsure of the plot himself, but they do tend to make a good love รข" hate team. The story & the scenery both move along beautifully, and the end fight scene is definitely a keeper, and a credit to the choreographers of the fight (I won't give away any more than that). An enjoyable Western. See more 04/14/2013 good solid western oh yeah! See more Read all reviews
