Trivia
James Stewart was originally supposed to play Morgan Hickman.

Errores
In the opening scene, Hickman rides into town with a " body" on his pack horse. The dead man's arm is exposed, show bulging veins. This was obviously a live stunt man or an extra. Dead men don't have bulging veins. No heart beat, no blood pressure.

Citas
Morg Hickman: A decent man doesn't want to kill, but if you're gonna shoot, you shoot to kill.
Sheriff Ben Owens: How about hittin' them in the arm?
Morg Hickman: That hokey-pokey'll get you killed fast. There're a lot of guys bragging about shooting a gun out of somebody's hand. They're lying. They shot to kill. A wounded man can still kill you.
Sheriff Ben Owens: *You* did it.
Morg Hickman: Huh?
Sheriff Ben Owens: With Bogardus. You hit his gun.
Morg Hickman: That wasn't my fight, that was yours. I could take a chance.
Sheriff Ben Owens: What if you missed?
Morg Hickman: Aw, he'd have killed you, or I'd have had to kill him.

The Western as an Art Form

This film is a classic. Henry Fonda as the lone bounty hunter,

Anthony Perkins as the tyro Sheriff. Fonda plays this one close to the chest, minimal dialog, maximum emotional effect. Only Jimmy Stewart underplays a western tough guy as well as Fonda.

We have all the necessary ingredients for a fine screenplay. We have greed, hate, violence, racism, ignorance, and just plain human decency all exposed on screen with an even pace to measure the morals meted out by Fonda's character as the plot unfolds.

You want both to be a character in this story and yet stay as far away from it as possible.

So it fails as a fairy tale, but succeeds in taking our souls for a walk outside our values and qualifies as a fine tale of human endeavor.

See this film, the western context only enhances the plot line.

I highly recommend it.
