Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/09/23 Full Review dave j Joel McCrea and Barbara Stanwyk's 6th and final film film together centering on a woman discovered in native tribe who is not a native and happens to be Cauca Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member 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. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member good western gr8 cast Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Hokey western is made watchable by it's lead performers.
