Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews A not very convincing social conscience western, but one that has its heart in the right place to get a better take on the racial attitudes of the period. Rated: B- Oct 7, 2013 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member very good western. Try it. James Welch Henderson Arkansas 8/23/2023 Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/28/23 Full Review Steve D Forgettable but inoffensive. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/09/23 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. Barbara Stanwyck returns from being held captive by Native Americans, only to find herself an outcast. Cavalry Sargent Joel McCrea helps her out and is part of a love triangle when Stanwyck is reunited with her husband who thought she was dead.
